ANN HULME
DRAWING AND PAINTING FRI MORNINGS - 9.30 - 12.30 FRI AFTERN OONS 1.00 - 4.00 Art is inspiring; to be able to render form, to give shape to ideas, to bring into existence the illusion of reality through painting and drawing seems like magic. Some part of it is magic, but the rest can be taught. The basic approach to it all, to seeing, is applying relative measurement, learning perspective, foreshortening and we shall be applying on these courses. Working with colour follows from basic drawing. Painting on these courses can be in watercolour, acrylics or oil paint . Remember it is all to enjoy. There are stages as in everything and you can make good progress in a short space of time if you apply the basic formal elements.
DAVID BROADBENT SATURDAY David will be teaching those necessary technical aspects of photography that make an individual photograph a success. If you are regularly disappointed with your results, can't pluck up the courage to get off full auto, don't know your f stop from your ISO or you are hoping to develop the skills you already have then this is the course for you. It’s fun and jargon busting with a definite slant to the creative. David will walk you through making the most of your digital camera, seeing the picture, understanding the settings, making fine adjustments to your camera's automation, using lenses, manipulating light, both natural and artificial and storing, manipulating and presenting your pictures. New comers are more than welcome and the course benefits from a lively and active group willing to share their own ideas.
Ann Skehel Silver workshops During the afternoons you will be working with sterling silver and learning basic techniques to create pieces of jewellery to your own design. Firstly you will design your piece of Jewellery, a simple ring, pendant, earrings or simple bangle. We will look at what you will need to make your Jewellery. Then you will learn how to manipulate your silver by cutting, bending, shaping and texturing. Some processes will require annealing, fusing and soldering. You can learn how to set a cabochon stone on a ring or pendant, and how to make your own findings from ear hooks to necklace clasps. There will be a lot of sanding to get rid of any marks before you will learn how to polish it to a high shine.
VAL WELHAM
