Activities : members of the group bring their own materials (of whatever media) and ideas for painting. Some help is offered if required. There is no "starting level" of ability. All that is required is a willingness to give it a go.

Through a mixture of presentation, discussion and some related art activity, the aim to develop informed ways to understand and talk about a very wide ranging and often controversial period in art.

Group contributions are encouraged and valued.

The images above are from a workshop led by Mike Bagshaw who came to the group to demonstrate and give  a talk on expressive pictures of animals using charcoal."
