Ystradyfodwg Art Society - Demo Evening with Paul Weaver

Bristol based Paul Weaver was the visiting artist at the Abergorki Hall, Treorchy on Monday 16th May.

Another excellent demonstration of the skills and techniques of water-colour painting was given by this popular artist.

Paul is a natural artist and teacher and his many useful tips will  help our members to, hopefully, create better paintings. 

All Ystradyfodwg Art Society's demonstration evenings with an invited artist are open to the public. 

Entry is just £2 - all are welcome - and the price includes tea and biscuits at half-time!

His composition of a crowded street scene in a Bristol market came to life as we watched.

His use of light and colour and the speed at which he worked was something to behold.

The finished painting can be seen next month in our annual exhibition as Paul donated the painting to our Society on completion. 

This year, for the first time, an exhibition of the work of pupils from Treorchy Comprehensive School will be shown alongside the main exhibition.

A Founder's Trophy has been designed for the competition and we hope that this new development will become a fixture in the annual events of the arts in the valley.  

We are all looking forward to the show, come along and join us at the Parc & Dare.

The annual exhibition begins on Tuesday 21st June and will run until Saturday 25th.

Doors will be open from 10.00am until 9pm each day, but will close on Saturday at 3pm. 

 Sold paintings can then be collected after 4pm.   £1.00 entrance by programme .    

Works for sale also appear in our on-line gallery within this community website - so if you don't live locally, there's no need to miss out.
