Gordon Harris, art and graphic store in Southwark St, organized another excellent art evening this week to discuss the selection, use and care of artist's brushes. Evan Woodruff demonstrated a wide variety of brushes and mediums in his usual humourous and witty manner. There were opportunities to ask questions and a free booklet was provided that covered this interesting topic. Here is Evan discussing the largest brush available on the market! Subjects covered were brush shapes, fibre types, cleaning of brushes and mark making tips. The information on varnishing techniques was particularly useful. Peter and the team from Gordon Harris were on hand, and offered a good discount on the brushes and other artists materials. Nibbles and wine were provided. This was the last demonstration evening for 2012 so roll on 2013!
