Camp Creative is the mix of music, circus, literary and visual arts tuition which I attended for the first time last year (I wrote about it in my travel blog.) Sydney artist Chris Wilson presented the course “Still Life and Portraiture in Oils” and this is our class of 2012:

I am beside her with my 'Orange Lady' painting.) |
Six of the students in this picture have come back for Chris’s new theme, “Exploring Styles and Techniques in Oils.” She told us to prepare by choosing a couple of artists whose styles we would like to explore, and to bring examples of their work, together with some photographs we can interpret in the style of our chosen artists. Hopefully my attempts at following Matisse and Robert Hannaford will be worth presenting after the end of the camp. If I get finished early I’m going to go all Picasso.
