Blue skies – or pink, or what you choose

Arran Visual Arts offers a two-day workshop on the weekend of April 21st and 22nd, run by John Knox, a well-known painter. He will take students through the oil painting techniques of representing landscapes and skies, particularly including the clouds that can add so much atmosphere to a picture. Both newcomers and experienced painters are welcome. The cost of the weekend is £50 for AVA members, £70 for non-members. All details from Alison Barr at 6 Manse Crescent, Brodick, tel 01770 303607. or see the website at www.arranvisualarts.co.uk/
