The group has got two new members this spring , Liz Hayes and Larry Steen, who are both taking part in our Spring exhibition in Trim.  We are delighted to have them both on board.

Their profile and gallery is in the process of being updated.

Annabel Potterton is taking part in a spring exhibition together with two local artists - INDIGO BLUE - at Leixlip Library , Captain’s Hill, Leixlip, Co. Kildare.

The Hon. Desmond Guinness is opening the exhibition on Thursday 17th April 2008 at 8 pm. The show continues for 2 weeks.

You can view the Annabel’s paintings in her gallery space.

The opening of the Group’s Summer exhibition was a lovely occasion with family, friends and invited guests in a beautiful new exhibition space at Liexlip Library.

Emer Martin, published novelist and member of the group, opened the exhibition with some very interesting, and literary reflections on members’ artistic expressions and reasons for being involved in art.
Some members of the group had chosen not to take part in this exhibition due to pressures of work and family.
6 members exhibited a total of 33 works of art of which 10 was sold. Commissions were also received.
