International Print Exchange

This is the first year I've taken part in this exchange and it has been a very worthwhile and positive experience - last week I received 8 prints from artists across the world - thank you to all the artists who took part and made this happen and particularly to those whose prints I received John Pindar, David Symonds, Barbara Follette Adams, Kelley Folger, Caroline Masterson, Faith Chevannes, Maureen McAdams and Cynthia Lessard

Drawing

I haven't been doing enough drawing so I've joined Richard Allman's drawing group - we meet for 2 and a half hours every Thursday. I really look forward to the challenges he gives us - last week we drew the negative spaces in giant flower arrangements (long stems of flowers like agapanthus and verbena) I wish I'd taken some photos of the flowers as the arrangements were thrown together in a rather wonderful wild way! I tore my drawing into 2 separate drawings which worked much better

This afternoon's session was equally challenging and enjoyable - more of that in my next post
