Never To Old Never To Young to Paint

Tuesday 11th March Runnymede Art Society Went to Springtime Nursery to paint with the Nursery Children aged between 2 1/2 to 5 years old all pre school children the Artists from Runnymede were aged between 58 and 82 years old We painted scenes of the seaside. We showed the children how to create clouds by taking out some of the paint with tissues and how to sponge yellow into the blue see to make green the children and artists both had a wonderful time. This is the third visit to the Nursery and the room buzzed with the interaction between the artists and the children, some children remembered us from our previous visits and we full of excitement. Runnymede Art Society will be holding their Spring Exhibition on Friday 18th and Saturday 19th April where the work of these very young artists will be displayed alongside the work of the members of the Society which proves you’re never too young or too old to learn to paint. Runnymede Art Society meet every Wednesday afternoon where they paint together at the Hythe Centre Thorpe Lea Road Egham from 1:30 pm to 4:30 pm anyone interested should contact Jean McDonnell on 01784 741599
