30th April Street Scene
Choose some of the many aspects of a street scene you wish to bring out, ignoring that which is a distraction. Decide on the approach, realism, impressionistic, abstract or whatever, include people. The medium is up to you but make it support your the main idea of your subject.

7th May Fallow DIY
I am away, you can play like mice and do whatever you like - artistically. If you want a lead then follow on last week, bring coloured objects like the image and study how light or dark the tonal areas area before you use paint, a good way is to do a black based monochrome study first, make sure the tones are right then do a second painting with colours at the correct value to match the tone.

Moving to abstraction
Working from a sketch or photo with interesting shapes, tones and colours, define a specific area to abstract. Move through several stages, with a reduced palette, application of washes, a mix of marks, increasing tone and final adjustment to achieve a unified colour abstract far away from the original. email study notes to follow. Hairdryer will be useful between stages.
