As you can see we had a splendid time being helped along by our tutor Joy Girvin. We were painting Christmas robins last Friday at the Chisenhale Studios. One of mine is now stuck to the front of a card to show off to the family.

In just four two hour sessions we’ve been making progress and feeling more confident using art materials.

Joy will be back in the spring to lead sketching classes with us out and about around Bow.
I’m really looking forward to it.
