ART HOLIDAY
Maggie Read took a group of artists on a short art holiday to the Dorset Coast, based in Bridport. During a very entertaining week, where the weather largely behaved itself, the artists drew and painted scenes in West Bay, Charmouth, Lyme Regis, Symondsbury, as well as scenes (especially people) from Bridport’s weekly market. The week was very successful, with many paintings being started (some completed!) as well as sketch books full of drawings. A few scenes of the locations and the painters are shown below.
Nail biting England football match coinciding with the timing of Maggie's "meet and greet"! Obviously that was more important ...
