Although only a small group met on Saturday for the first, of what we hope will be a series of Essex based meetings, we seemed to have a good afternoon. The theme for the day was sketchbooks and members brought sketchbooks they made and participated in a exercise designed to be a starting point, but also showing how something can be made from almost nothing.
Fairkytes was an excellent venue - very light and warm (paticularly useful on a very cold winter day), and with easy parking.
Our next date is planned for March 2011, hopefully avoiding any bad weather at the early part of the year. Hopefully a few more members will be able to attend at that time.
The photo above shows some of those present working on their sketchbooks - as you can see deep in thought.
