Paint, Sip & Learn

Life class for painters

Life drawing classes tend to involve short poses which seldom allow time for painters to adjust their paintings sufficiently. In this class we will work with a life model who will take a single pose for the two hours each week, giving us more time to adjust and correct our paintings. Artists of all levels are welcome to attend, but this is a self directed class and no tuition will normally be given. Please bring your own water-based painting material such as acrylics, gouache or watercolours as the room is not equipped for oil-based paints. There is a sink in the kitchen adjoining the studio room where water can be obtained. The two hour session will start at 2.30pm and end at 4.30pm with a 15 minute tea break at 3.30pm. Newington Green Meeting House is an historic Unitarian Chapel situated on the North side of Newington Green. Access to the class will be by the side door; please ring the bell when you arrive. The charge for the class is £12

Independent Artists of London – Meet & Greet

Welcome to the very first gathering of **Independent Artists of London**! This inaugural event is all about getting to know one another in a relaxed and friendly atmosphere. Whether you're a painter, illustrator, sculptor, printmaker, photographer, digital artist, curator, designer, or simply someone passionate about the arts, you're warmly invited to join us. Our aim is to build a supportive community of independent artists across London—sharing ideas, experiences, opportunities, and inspiration. There is no formal agenda; this is a chance to introduce yourself, meet fellow creatives, exchange contacts, and help shape the future of the group together. During the evening we'll discuss: * Who we are and our artistic practices. * What we'd like this community to become. * Ideas for future meet-ups, exhibitions, gallery visits, workshops, and collaborations. * Ways we can support one another as independent artists. Feel free to bring a few images of your work on your phone or tablet if you'd like to share them informally. Whether you're an emerging artist, an established practitioner, or returning to your creative practice after a break, you'll find a welcoming space here. We look forward to meeting you and beginning what we hope will become a vibrant and supportive artistic community in London. See you at POSK Gallery!
