On Monday we have the lovely Louise Mann joining us with Watercolours and the theme will be flowers. Louise will be with us for two classes. (Monday 31st March & Monday 28th April) Monday 31st March - 1pm till 3pm - Foakes Hall, Great Dunmow. £1 for members and £5 for non members. Louise has asked if you could bring along some flowers in a vase or jar if possible, but Louise will be bringing a bunch of tulips and daffodils with her. Louise is also going to try and print some images of Elizabeth Blackadder’s watercolour flowers as Louise loves her style of painting. And Louise is going to try and paint the flowers flat so from an aerial perspective and another perhaps from a vase or jar or two, which is why it would be great if there is a vase and jars available. Louise has asked if you could bring along: Watercolour paper, 300gsm cold or hot pressed Brushes: a squirrel mop brush and a rigger brush Pot for water Paper towel Watercolour paints Pencil and rubber Mixing plates

Tracey Ingram Wins Best in Show Dunmow Art Group held their Annual Spring Exhibition on the weekend of 15 – 16 March. Local artist, Tracey Ingram wins Dunmow Art Group’s Best in Show award for her acrylic artwork ‘Bench on Flitch Way’. Tracey says ‘I’m pleased and overwhelmed to have received this accolade. The artwork is one of my most popular artworks and prints of it always sell well. It was one of the first pieces I did. I saw the bench and took the photo in May 2019 while on a morning walk along the Flitch Way; the slightly rundown nature of it, overgrown with weeds captured my imagination. I finally managed to paint it in March 2020. Dunmow Art Group has been really supportive of my work, and I am pleased to be part of such a welcoming community.’ More of Tracey’s work can be found on her website http://tracey-ingram-artist.co.uk.
