This is a great event.  watch a painting grow from the first stoke to the last.  See the last interesting subjects in the area grow onto some canvas.  Have a conversation with an artist, while they keep working.

Then come to the exhibition a few weeks later to see the finished paintings.   Dates to be confirmed.
