The wonders of clay

So many different types of clay - and so much you can do. We mainly work with black, white and red clay - both high and low fire. Here are some of the things that have come out of the kiln lately.

Laila's Creature

Easter bunny

Ballerina

Andrea's stylized lady

Cat

Jack came to visit in one of the holidays - and this is the result - the Arc de Triumphe

Cecile's adorable little teddy bear

Dom's polygons

Café Culture Cinéma - Wednesday 30 March

Frida Kahlo & Chateauneuf

A great turnout for our last Café Culture! and a very international audience too - thanks to Marijke Obbink, new boardmember with 'Events Organising' as responsibility... 
On top of that, the movie was received with great enthusiasm of all. It was good and nobody noticed that it lasted two full hours!

After that, whilst nibbling and drinking a glass, Pim presented to us a relief that was created in his Monday morning class. It is a drawing of the village of Chateauneuf, in several layers to suggest depth and it is absolutely stunning!!

Apart from the artist behind the original idea (Lucia Gualtieri) who did an amazing job organizing all this and putting it together with Peter Lea (who is not in the pictures because he took most of them)

Peter Lea, together with Carol Fischer and Hélène Pons spent hours in the Hangar and at home, painstakingly creating houses, trees, towers, pavements, lampposts and more in the finest pen-and-ink lines you can possibly imagine... 

 

Great credit therefore also goes to their spouses, who put up with them and made sure there was plenty of tea. And last but not least a big HURRAY for Pim who as always was there helping out and inspiring the group! 

 And with result: Everybody absolutely loved it! 

 

We are proud of you and Chateauneuf can again be happy that they have such a fantastic Art Centre!!

Saturday Morning Acrylics with Pim!

If you want to show off the work of your class in our Hangar Blog, either send me pictures with a clear description (who is the artist, what's the title) and maybe a little story, or -even better - ask me to authorize you to post it yourself!!

Monday morning still life with Pim!

 Part of the still life is visible left,below - but you'll need to look at the drawings of Helene, Ron, Carole, Peter, Laila and Maarit to know what it looked like!

Monday 18 March - after a couple of weeks of very hard and precise work on the 'Chateauneuf Project' (more about that later) Pim's drawing group finally could enjoy a very nice still life again!
And as you can see from some of the results, they loved working on it...:

Another still life drawing class this Monday 4 April, from 9.30am!

Wednesday Acrylics - with Pim de Jongh

Everyone happily painting with acrylic paint on canvas, with Pim as teacher, helper and inspirator. An atelier libre for all artists who love working with acrylics in a warm and uplifting atmosphere, where it doesn't matter if you drop a bit of paint!!
