I should preface this article by mentioning that the stay at the Santa Rita vineyard was accompanied by much wine, in the form of official wine tasting sessions and, well, just drinking. Therefore my recollections of the artistic details of the stay needed a bit of a boost from Google.
TAS Kington Langley provide materials for life drawing classes at Rag and Bone Art School
Just before Christmas I was invited to an exhibition of life drawing in the Yelde Hall, Chippenham. The work was from the various life drawing classes run by Rag and Bone, our local art school.
TAS Kington Langley had provided funds from our AV budget to create a selection of papers and drawing materials to support the various life drawing classes.
As you can see there is some amazing talent on display.
The Arts Society Kington Langley kicked off 2025 with local lecturer and Antique Roadshow presenter Marc Allum. This was a repeat visit as Marc also had the January slot last year and was so popular that he was invited back to talk thistime about ‘Fakes and Forgeries’
Marc brought with him a selection of his pieces and we were encouraged to look at them, work out which might be fakes, forgeries or the ‘real thing’.
