He follows traditional techniques but uses them in a modern and original style. He also finds time to organise interesting painting courses at home and abroad. In addition to portraiture. He paints local landscapes, still life and figures. He exhibits widely in and around London Non members welcome cost £10.

Thursday 6th March 2025 7.45pm for 8.00pm on Zoom
‘The art and architecture of Le Corbusier’. Lecturer: Simone Bloom Le Corbusier’s name is synonymous with modernist architecture, but for him art was just as important as designing buildings. His art didn't just embellish his buildings, it informed their design in many ways: particularly in the freeing up of traditional forms and iconography. "Through my painting I arrive at architecture. Art is the source of my free spirit. Drawing, painting, sculpture, building are one and the same to me. Art and Architecture should always work together in perfect synthesis" Non members welcome cost £10. Please contact Anna Cross for payment or membership details and Zoom link at [email protected]
