We’re looking back at the last 12 months and we have had an exciting one!

We’ve had some fantastic themes and seen some amazing talent on these nights.

All of our workshops have been informative, interesting and participants have produced beautiful pieces.

Our Quarterly Magazine showcased some local talent and provided some brilliant articles that everyone could read and enjoy.

We had our competition near the start of the year with winning and getting his artwork on some mixed-media sketchbooks.

And we even started a Tik Tok account!

The Sennelier Abstract Paint is a fine acrylic paint that combines all the quality standards that are characteristic of the Sennelier paint. Its pigment concentration, which is exceptional in this segment, gives it a creamy consistency with heavy-body pastiness and incomparable coverage.

Due to its ease of application on canvas and numerous substrates, it is highly valued by contemporary artists who are fans of mixed media, street art and modern techniques.

We have an intro set to the Abstract paint perfect for any level of artist!
