Torridge

Drawing Groups

Group Meeting Dates

There are 2 drawing groups in Torridge U3A, Group 1 meets on the second and fourth Wednesdays of each month and Group 2 meets on the first and third Thursdays of each month. Both Groups meet in the Upper Room at Northam.

They have both been meeting for several years and over this time individual members have explored and developed many basic skills in drawing and they are now confidently applying these skills to their own work. The groups feel strongly that drawing is the bedrock of most artwork and their emphasis on under-drawing for painting for example. is evident in their work.

The organisation of each session allows time for group members to explore different approaches which may be new to them and to apply these, where appropriate, to their own work. The group is now confidently organising its own exhibitions every other year and some members are successfully getting their work accepted into other local open art exhibitions.
