Our discussions included: resemblance; sensibilities; materials; processes; context; art or craft?; artist; viewer; curator; funder; art as facilitator; "new" art (Impressionism, Cubism & now) and art as messenger (Victorian & now).
I think everyone went home for a rest...
Excellent stuff - well done everyone & a continued thank you to the artists who allow me to show their work.

Knight “Fibre Painting #7” (fibre &

…evocative rather than prescriptive. The paintings are not “abstracted from”

are rather a product of it in the form of imagination.
