Workshops and Demonstrations
In addition to the group’s regular painting days which are untutored,
regular workshops and demonstrations are organised throughout the year.
These are conducted by local professional artists to introduce a variety of styles and mediums
for both members and non-members.
Our next Workshop
Details on our next workshop will be advised very soon.
Past Workshops, Demos & Art Classes
Our members very much enjoyed a demonstration by Herman Pekel on Tuesday, 1st April. We were so pleased to have such a great artist sharing his knowledge and expertise on watercolour techniques with us.
For many years, Herman has often conducted workshops and demonstrations which have always been very enjoyable and beneficial for us to improve our artistic skills in colour and composition.
Herman is a multi-awarded painter. His numerous awards include winning the 1989, 1993, 1995 and 2006 Camberwell Rotary Watercolour Prize, the 2004 Camberwell Rotary Art Show’s Best Oil and the 1989 and 1993 Alice Bale Award. He was also a three-time finalist of the Camberwell Rotary Travel Scholarship.
Our workshop conducted by Ron Muller was very much enjoyed by all those who attended..
Ron who is is widely recognised as an outstanding professional artist and teacher, demonstrated many useful watercolour techniques making the session both informative and enjoyable.
Ron has been a tutor at the Doncaster Templestowe Art Society for many years and has conducted numerous workshops in Australia and overseas, particularly Tuscany and France.
Book Binding Class with Judith Place
Recently the Kyneton Art Group held a book Binding class run by one of our members, Judith Place.
This was very enjoyable for all participants, and now we can take our books out and about and draw or paint different scenes.
No excuse now when you’re having a coffee, to take along your book and capture that moment in time.
Workshop with Lyn Diefenbach
Another very informative workshop conducted by award winning artist, Lyn Diefenbach.
It was a great opportunity for our members to learn some of Lyn’s techniques to produce amazing artworks in Pastels.
On the first day of the Pastel workshop, Lyn demonstrated this beautiful seascape painting.
And on the second day, Lyn demonstrated this lovely floral artwork.
Lyn’s work is very inspirational.
Our members gained so much from this very enjoyable workshop and many lovely pastel artworks were produced.
Here’s a few of the photos taken on the weekend of the 5th and 6th November.
