DAVID TRESS 
1st July 2016
7.30pm ~ £10 per ticket

David returns to Moor Hall and will also be giving a new lecture at Newcastle Community Centre, SY7 8QL.
Unfortunately the course is fully booked but the lecture will enable you to learn so much about his working life, how his work has developed and how he approaches his subject matter now.

He is a landscape painter and paints his response to the landscape with an expressive power rare in contemporary art. His abstract mark-making and his passionate response to his subject matter make him one of the countries leading inventive Modern Romantic painters.

Book your ticket/s now to experience him for yourself.

ROZANNE HAWKSLEY
7th July 
3.00pm ~ £10

Rozanne is one of our countries leading and most formidable artists, producing work which is hugely powerful and speaks about war and other world events. Her drawings are haunting and menacing and much of her work is controversial, yet deeply profound. 
  

  
Now in her 80's she is still working and I am thrilled that she is coming to Moor Hall to informally talk about her life and work.

 
This is a rare opportunity and tickets will be limited to 20, so do get back to me if you want to to meet Rozanne over a glass of wine and nibbles.

DOROTHY TUCKER 
Kantha: Colour, Shapes and Spaces
27th and 28th June 2016
£130 for 2 days

I still have 2 places only on this course so email me by clicking  HERE to find out more or to book a place.
 
Kantha is a Bangladeshi word for cloth, and a particular way of making embroidered quilts from the good parts of old worn out saris using variations of running stitch.    Traditionally threads for Kantha stitching were withdrawn from coloured woven saris borders. Sometimes stripes of colour woven into the saris were sandwiched between the layers of cloth.  In a contemporary take on Kantha we will stitch lines and grids into layers of cloth to create pictorial or abstract designs which explore relationships between shapes and spaces.    

Dorothy brings with her a wealth of knowledge and experience and some lovely samples.





BIG REQUEST

Can I ask students to have a look on their bookshelves for any book of mine that they may have borrowed. Several have gone astray and one in particular by EL ANATSUI
