Henry Rimmer Demonstration in Watercolour 5.10.11

This Months Demonstrator Henry Rimmer showed us his method of painting with watercolour Henry at the age of eighty has been painting and demonstrating for a good many years and his calm and methodical approach made the process look amazingly easy.  The picture he painted this evening he has kindly donated to the Society and will be framed and raffled at the November meeting.

The picture below shows me holding the award that had been made by Doug Coe and carries the name of Pat Hare who was a founder member of the Society and when she died she left the Society a legacy. We have had the paint pallet shaped award made in her honour and The Mayor of Runnymede David Parr will choose a favourite painting at the winter exhibition this year and the Artist of that painting will receive the Pat Hare award which will have their name engraved upon it and they will keep the award for 1 year, the process will then be repeated the following year.
