The first batch from our last session…

Our third session got off to a rainy start but was filled with a bunch of activities and workshops, including a marshmallow challenge, exquisite corpse, building a camera obscura and creating collages. The evenings have been spent watching select movies, enjoying presentations by our visiting artists, and continuing to develop personal projects.

Highlights of our trip to Dublin included a talk by artist Jim Ricks at Temple Bar Gallery and Studios, a visit to the Francis Bacon Studio at the Hugh Lane and a movie at the Irish Film Institute.

This weekend saw everyone busy with an acrylic painting project and printing in the darkroom. Today we enjoyed lunch in the sunshine, discussing who won the two day game of “Assasin”. As everyone busily works towards our first critique we look forward to our upcoming trip to Cork and Cape Clear Island. You can see the photographs by clicking here…
