Frans Aeyelts

This coming November 9,10 & 11 we are working on bringing Frans Aeyelts from Lunenburg, Nova Scotia up to teach a workshop.  He is going to take a scene from Yellowknife and use it for our painting workshop.   So we are working to provide him interesting shots of our houseboats in summer and winter.  If you have any images that would be of interest let us know.


Here is a sample of his work!  



Watch for more news in our newsletter.  If you have any questions email ykwatercolour at gmail.com!

February Meeting

We had a great meeting on Monday night.  We are getting through a range of veggies and fruit and learning so much.  The part I liked was seeing the great apples from the last meeting!

Lynn playing around.  Love the trees in a distance.


Lynn's trees and bridges are great.

Watching the video for doing a lemon.  It was quite interesting.


Shawna and Doris' lemon.  

Next month we are doing a tomato!  Hopefully we will see you then.

January SketchCrawl

On January 19th (-33 C with a wind chill of -49) Lynn and I were the only two to go to the first Yellowknife SketchCrawl...could be because there wasn't much in the way of advertising!  

The next SketchCrawl is on April 13th!  10:30 am meeting place to be announced. I have to say that I hope that we have much nicer outside weather!

 Lynn drew this scene from a photo hanging up on the wall.  


My completed drawing.

Lynn and I happy to be inside!
