We are very pleased to announce that Charles Hickson will be demonstrating acrylic landscape painting at the SMA on Thursday 11th September, 7.30 to 9.30pm.
Charles was a tutor at Cheadle and Marple Sixth Form College for over 20 years and now holds weekly art classes in a number of venues, plus plein air landscape painting summer schools.
His current work has concentrated on landscape paintings made ‘in situ’ with large houses and gardens providing the theme. He attempts to convey an atmosphere and a sense of mystery about a venue despite it being recognisable to those who know the location.
He likes to paint in acrylic on paper, the medium limiting the message at times but liberating it at others. The intention is to balance a careful design element with wilder, more gestured passages.

Free to SMA members, visitors are welcome on the night for £8: please bring your own art supplies (and a mug if you'd like a free brew). We look forward to you joining us.
Note that potential new members are always very welcome - if you would like to come along for a couple of visits to see if you like us, please contact us for more details.
Find us at Marple Methodist Church Hall, Church Lane, Marple SK6 7AY (side entrance)
