Different Learning Topics

In 2019 Curdnatta Art Group has offered monetary support to the Wednesday evening art group and Jan Pana has travelled from Port Germein on a regular basis to provide skills and knowledge of drawing to the  group.














The  iPad drawing workshop brought in some young faces and a youthful approach to art. It was one of those cases when everyone learnt from each other as we all had our own unique set of skills and knowledge. This could lead to more opportunities for young people to engage in gallery activities so stay tuned.


We were so engrossed in our ART that we forgot to take photos but here is a summary of what we explored ...
* creating a high resolution image for print on a range of products.
* exploring layers in Procreate
* taking a photo of an object
*tracing the image
* filling the image
* duplicating the image
* selecting and manipulating images
* adding textural layers and exploring blends.
*adding shading effects

They are also planning an exhibition of their B&W pics around September. Just a reminder that Management group needs to know of all activities that are taking place in the gallery. We want people to enjoy using the space but unauthorised use is not permitted. This is a requirement of our lease agreement and insurance provider. Security Camera doing its job over night.
