This class is for the photographer that knows his or her camera but wants to know more than the basic use of their camera. In this meet up, our professional instructor will answer the more technical things you can do with your camera. She will talk about previsualization and planning the right photo before you make the image happen. You can learn more about lenses, cameras and gear before you make a big purchase!

It was a fun, chill experience, that allowed me to learn a couple of beginner tips and other necessities that I didn?t know about drawing even if those were tips I already knew I still look forward to see what else I can learn

This was my first in person art class - and I am a true beginner- so I was pretty nervous going in. Ciara was very sweet and set a good tone for the meeting. I very much enjoyed the class and the conversation with other students.

Several of my pieces feature paths disappearing into the woods. The title comes from a line in a Cat Steven?s song. I have always been taken by roads disappearing around a bend. What?s just out of sight? Robert Frost?s poem The Road Not Taken has been an inspiration to me. Completed in oil in 2024.

Title or Location: Valdemossa in Mallorca
I painted this using Winsor & Newton watercolour paints on Hahnemuhle 140lb paper. I visited Mallorca in 2005 and fell in love with the hilltop hamlet of Valdemossa. I recently found a postcard I'd bought while there and decided to try and capture the image. The PC was very small (smaller than A6) so it was very difficult to make out where one building ended and its neighbour began. I sketched it out first to be sure of my perspective (the painting is 16cm x 13cm) and worked my way across, contr

My name is Dave JarvisI am quite new to painting.I only took it up when I retired from work just over three years ago. I used to work in heavy industry as an engineer. After retirement I needed something to do with my time, I don?t know why I started painting. I just thought I would have a go. Everything I have done has been self taught, picking up tips here and there but mainly from the internet.I find it very relaxing and the time just flies by. Most of my art work is in watercolour
