Art Community With Mari Lwyd.

The excellent 9to90 Art Community runs free art classes every Friday and I’ll be the guest tutor for the next few weeks.

“On Friday 3rd November we are starting a very special 3 week drawing and printing course with artist and 9to90 all time favourite tutor Rose Davies. The course is based around the Mari Lwyd, an ancient Welsh tradition where a life size puppet based on the skull of a horse is paraded through towns and villages to welcome the New Year.

Starting on November 3rd (at Swansea Museum. 1.30-3.30) Rose will guide you on drawing from a horse’s skull and a Mari Lwyd,

Preparing for class number two- A Lino cutting session in the second class on Friday November 10th (at GS Artists, 1.30-3.30pm) .

Then in the week three, the 3rd session on November 17th (at GS Artists, 1.30-3.30pm) we will be printing up your Mari Lwyd blocks on paper using chine collé, and onto natural fabric with textile ink.

Please book in via the Eventbrite link here, and it would be important to be able to come to all 3 sessions.

With free hot drinks, snacks and lots of chat, we look forward to seeing you.”
