Hi everyone

Welcome back to a new term of “Pencil and Paper” Part 3.  We started the course with a classic – still life using natural forms.  We were mainly focusing on shape and proportions and you all did a fantastic job.  Great work everyone and a really good start to the course.  Below are some photos of your work and there are more on our instagram page @leedsartgroup.

I’m also pleased to say that through 10% of your course fees going towards Hope Pastures Animal Sanctuary, together we’ve raised £87.50 for all the horses, ponies and donkeys.  It’s nice to think they might be getting an extra carrot this week thanks to us.    One of our Leeds Art Group members (Sally) volunteers at the sanctuary and passed on their thanks as they have had a big drop in their funds since having to close their gates to the public.  So a big thank you to all you lovely people on behalf of the animals!  For further information about Hope Pastures please visit their website at:  www.hopepastures.org.

See you next week.
