Truro Art Society Cornwall

           Our May exhibition was at Trelissick. Everyone was happy with the setting, the footfall and the sales. We are looking forward to the next one. The old stables, tack room and corridor, with their antiquated wooden partitions, stone floors and hayracks were an excellent foil for our eclectic mix of topics, media and styles.     From watercolour seascapes to acrylic dreamscapes, realistic flowers to abstractions, delicate animal sketches to human (and dog) portraits, we have a picture for all seasons.     The only limit was size - obviously we cannot hang anything too huge. There was plenty of opportunity to display unframed pictures in our browsers. (Sadly, this time, we could not do cards.)      When people come to our exhibitions they may be looking for something suble or something brash, or anything in between. We hope they will find what they are looking for. We certainly enjoy painting it.   ...

Welcòm o whei!    Welcome to a revitalised Society and a new blog. At a well-attended AGM we had some interesting discussions regarding the way forward for the Society. One decision was to add "Cornwall" to our name so that we are not confused with a similar society, same initials, in Nova Scotia. There are also some ideas for a new, distinctive logo. Look out for more entries on this blog and a new website that is in preparation. And, wow! We are really getting updated - we are going to have a WattsApp group!  If you are interested in a Blast From The Past you can read "historical" blogs  from October 01, 2005 to May 10, 2008 on http://truroarts.blogspot.com/ This then changed for May and June 2008 to https://truroartsociety.blogspot.com After which it was just down to a newsletter, initially printed and mailed, then just emailed and on the website.
