Soraya French Workshop – Dynamic Acrylics, November 2011

 Photo above: Elizabeth Leonard

The Soraya French Workshop organised by David Kirkham was fully attended by SWAS members and members of other art groups following her brilliant and flamboyant demo the previous evening.  Soraya did two more great demos during the Workshop, gave individual tuition, and most participants completed two artworks – a busy and enjoyable day.  This particular workshop could have been filled twice over; don’t miss the next one!
