Student Exhibition 2017

December 2, 2017 by Erin Hill Sketching

What a gorgeous evening we had at our favourite spot on North Head, gazing across the National Park towards Sydney town, as the sun went down. What a wonderful gathering too of students family and friends, all there to celebrate the work on display. Some of our very early students (2012) were in attendance, as were some who are in their first term. Such a variety of styles this year and so many different techniques and colour. A lot of […]

Summer Sketching. Sand & Scones

December 29, 2016 by Erin Hill Sketching

Tuesday December 27 & Thursday December 29 ’16 Some of us met at Manly Cove on Tuesday to catch up after our Christmas day outings, have a lot of laughs and oh yes, to sketch. Today we’d be using elements of the view in front of us, and placing them where we wanted. Using imagination to create the scene as we wished rather than as it looks in real life. Getting the essence in other words. It’s a fun exercise. Takes a […]
