Today's sketch date: last minute change of timing at The Place

 Dear Artists,

We have been advised of a last minute change of start time for our drawing session with the Dance School at The Place.   The class is now to start at 10.30, so please can you arrive outside at 10.15.   We mustn't disturb the class by crashing in late.

Sorry about this, the email from the Place was only sent out at 8.30 this morning.

Full details on previous post.

Best wishes, Sue

The Place, 28 February 2023

 Don't forget our next outing to the Place on Tuesday 28 February. The ballet class starts at 10:45 so aim to meet in the entrance by 10:30, so as not to disturb the class.

The Place is just off Euston Road, so easily accessible by public transport. Janet's mobile for the day is 07815 772857 and pics to me janetat48ock@hotmail.com for publication on the blog.

The Place Theatre, 17 Duke's Road, London WC1H 9PY.

See you there.

And two more pics from Gafung Wong from our Wallace Collection outing. In fact Gafung got distracted by the Church on the way to the Wallace Collection, but great work.

The Wallace Collection 31 January 2023

This proved to be a great success with more than 20 people attending and we were even able to get several tables together in the top lit internal courtyard for lunch. The gallery provides stools for artists as well! A warm welcome to newcomers to Art in the Park.

The Wallace Collection is a great place to go and it is incredible to think that all this once belonged to one family but is now free and easily accessible to the public and of course artists.

Some people drew the artefacts, some the architecture and some the pictures of course. Most artists sent their work to me janetat48ock@hotmail.com or to Sue, sue@lees.org.uk but if anybody else who was there wants to send us a picture this can be published on this blog next time.

Our next outing is to The Place, a dance school, where we have permission to sketch a ballet class. Tuesday 28th February. The class starts at 10:45am so aim to be there by 10:30. The Place Theatre, 17 Duke's Road, London WC1H 9PY. A reminder with more details will be sent out nearer the time together with a final confirmation.

So, pictures in no particular order:
