Our annual competition begins on a Wednesday session and finishes on the next Saturday session.  A good start was made by everyone and they had all given a lot of thought about what to paint. There were paintings of:-

• St.Petersburg football stadium
• Russian peasants
• a dancer wearing a traditional Russian costume
• inspiration from the Russian painter Marc Chagall
• Matryoshka nesting dolls
• Russian cathedrals and domes
• the Russian steppe
• Przewalkski’s horses

Two members continued with their paintings of a landscape and a canal scene in Venice. The colours mixes on Peta’s palette are gorgeous aren’t they?
