The new session of the New Cunninghame Art Club begins tomorrow evening (Thursday, October 2).

During the course of the season there will be fortnightly demonstrations by visiting artists, who will share their tips and techniques in a variety of mediums.

New and old members are welcome.

We are a friendly group and always like to see new visitors.

The club meets at 7.30pm in the Argyle Community Centre, Campbell Avenue, Saltcoats.

This week’s guest artist is Elaine Johnston.

Glasgow born Elaine graduated with honours from Glasgow school of art in 1997, with a further BA degree from the Royal academy of Art and Drama in 2004. Her latest body of work embraces the strong rural animal paintings for which she has become renowned.
