The Painting in Penn Group

At the launch of the Painting In Penn Group during January 2003, 24 people expressed an interest which has now been converted into a membership of 120 spread over 4 classes.

The group has discovered that when watercolour paints are used with imagination and skill, clear and spontaneous effects which are impossible to achieve in any other medium are attained.

The range of activities include paintings from guided projects, holiday photographs, use of own drawings, still life, portraits, flowers or abstract works through water colour, oil, acrylic or gouache media with additional support being gained through videos and demonstrations as well as visits to well known local scenes of interest.

We have now established a partnership with Bantock House & Museum, to deliver customised workshops for the Penn Artists.
