Last Sunday, I had the pleasure of being part of ‘Artists In Action’ again.
My first appearance at this event, last year was so enjoyable I thought I would do it again this year.
Some 30 or so local Artist’s, some professional, some semi-professional, and some enthusiasts, all combined to showcase their art and craft at the Camden Civic Centre in Camden, some 60km (37m) south-west of Sydney, Australia.
It was such a fun event again. People of all ages came in to view our art and craft. There demonstrations and workshops, and people could enjoy having a go at creating art.
At my table, I had some my art on display and in between talking to people, I went about doing a couple of watercolour sketches, including my, ‘Watercolour Sketch a Day’ that has been going for over 5 years now.
As I did last year, I encouraged people who
- ‘had always wanted to try sketching and/or painting’ but hadn’t,
- ‘those that had been doing it but had stopped’, or
- those who think that they don’t have time’ to go ahead and try it/take it up again, as it offers:
- some great mental health benefits
- it’s fun and relaxing
All-in-all a fun day! Looking forward to next year’s event.
Till next time!
