Today we said a fond farewell to our fellow member, Rosemary Stewart. Rosemary was a long standing, and loyal member of our group. Her favourite painting subject was Flowers and she produced wonderful work over the years. Her paintings are tangible reminders to her family and friends of her inspiration and talent.
RIP Rosemary you willl be sadly missed by us all.

I was so caught up with Douglas’ introductory talk about poster painting techniques that I forgot to take snaps of everyone’s work. Just before we left I remembered and these are the worked on paintings that I managed to capture just before we rushed out the door. 🫨
