Take a look at what went on last year
November 7th.
An On-Line Workshop with
Melanie Cambridge.
Plus all the usual activities on the Website.
October 3rd.
Sadly the Virus scuppered our plans and we were unable to hold the hoped for meeting and demonstration as our venue closed its doors once again.
September 5th 2020
Hey we made it and after what seems an eon we managed a Socially Distanced and Sanitised meeting.
A display of our 'Lockdown Memories' greeted attendees as they arrived.
Take a look at the 'NEWS' page to see how that looked.
No raffle, and no tea but hey, who can drink tea wearing a Mask?
Our very own Mickie Sutcliffe treated the attendees to a demonstration of the textural possibilities of 'Pebeo' Vitrial paint.
Beyond the traditional stained glass effects, Pébéo’s Vitrail range takes you into a world where it is possible to design intense creations, capable of moving under the eye of the observer.
Although limited to only 30 people in the hall, the event was thoroughly enjoyed by those that braved this strange new world.
A big THANK YOU to the committee members for all the sanitising before and after the meeting thus keeping the Hall Open.
August 1st. 2020
A socially distanced event with sanitised everything
There was a display of some of the work members had created during Lockdown, a wonderful array of the "Lockdown Memory Squares"
A great start but we need MORE to make this a spectacular event.
July 2020
Another month of uncertainty but undaunted we had a full programme on the website and the now famous "Guess the Painting" challenge.
The Artist of the Month was Moya Hulley showing some of her Silk Paintings and Painting on Ceramics.
The weekly En Plein Air sessions gained popularity as more of our members ventured out into the summer sunshine.
Do get in touch if you would like to take part and look out for the Bexhill Art Society Banner.
June 2020
A Month of Heat, Storms and continued uncertainty but we still had loads to do in our continuous virtual meeting. It will be slightly sad when we are limited to just on day a month.
We had a fabulous synopsis of her artistic life from our Artist of the Month Penny Fawkner.
We had, thanks to the efforts of Jan McIntosh, the mind stretching weekly 'Guess the Painting' competition. Hope you all are enjoying them.
There was the Monthly Competition on 'Shimmering Heat' that produced a boggling variety of interpretations, and the images to inspire you in the 'Paint This' challenge.
Some of our more intrepid members ventured out for socially distanced En Plein Air painting sessions. Get in touch if you would like to join in.
Enough to keep us all entertained.
Keep going folks, there is light at the end of the tunnel. (We Hope)
May 2020
We are getting used to this now, another month of Fun and Frolics with our month long Virtual meetings. Again there was the weekly quiz, the 'Paint This Challenge' and the Monthly Competition. This time on the theme of RENEWAL. There was a fantastic variety of interpretations of the subject. Many thanks
and well done to all those that took part.
April 2020
Due to the Covid 19 restrictions there was no meeting but the Society rallied and managed to host quizzes, challenges and the usual monthly competition all via this website.
It is as if our meeting carries on all Month.
We had a weekly Guess the Painting quiz
A fantastic selection of paintings for the Monthly Competition "Beneath Your Feet"
Lots of submissions for the weekly
"Paint this Challenge"
So many interpretations of a single scene.
Many thanks to all who are taking part.
