Bromley Art Society Bringing Artists Together since 1947

Open Evening/Launch yesterday saw fewer visitors than I had hoped for. However, there were interesting and interested visitors I hope to meet again.

It was good to hang my show this morning with the superb aid of Arthur. Exhibition hanging is impossible alone. Thanks Arthur. It was good, too, to share hanging time with John Marshall. His mobiles are a delight. It would be good to have our critics visit and contribute their comments to the next issue of The Easel. Open evening this Wednesday, 7 to 9 pm. Exotic nibbles and soft fluids will be available. Incidentally, mine is an off-the-wall show...

The hanging is on Monday next week. Open evening on Wednesday 7 to 9. Welcome all.

I am organizing life drawing classes starting on the Sat 10:00 AM the 26th of April, and each Sat morning after until 31st of May. If anyone is interested please speak to me at the next monthly meeting or visit www.blacklabarts.co.uk for details

At the committee meeting on Moday last our Honorary Membership Secretary, Brenda, agreed to be our Honorary Vice Chairman. We are truly grateful.

Olga is taking responsibility for the BAS publicity. Already, Olga is on the job. Super!

Annual General Meeting

7 February 2014

MINUTES

1. Apologies for absence: Liz Crossingham, Adrian Fowle, Christine Mallion

2. Chairman’s Report Allan Davies

The minutes of the 2013 AGM were approved and signed.

After my talk to BAS last night I received several requests for information on the software I described. Rather than just email the information, I have put it on the web so that it remains easy to find. This is a forum and therefore an invitation to contribute! Let's have your responses.

My diary has been marked on Mondays to count down the weeks left to get ready for my Ripley show. Three weeks left! I am on schedule.

I have been looking again at our digitally produced Easel. It is a triumph! Our articles can now be illustrated in full colour; something we could not consider in the former printed newsletter. A former member, Bernard Victor, always illustrated his pieces and it was heart-breaking to produce them in black and white. So, let's be creative with our contributions for the Summer issue.
