aim4art is a voluntary community arts group, formed in 2009, dedicated to pushing the boundaries of painting and drawing in the Tees Valley. We aim to paint, aim to draw, aim to create art. We meet every Tuesday (10am-4pm) at The Barn, overlooking Hemlington Lake, Middlesbrough, TS8 9DA. We have no regular tutor, but support each other and organise a programme of visits and workshops. Visit our website at www.aim4art.org.uk

AGM and forthcoming events
Our AGM was held this Tuesday (5th Nov) and resulted in the re-election of the current committee, albeit with slightly changed roles. Julia remains as chair, and Gill Place as Minutes Sec. Les will now be secretary for Membership as well as Funding, while Rob will be Treasurer as well as IT Manager. Eve will continue on the committee as Deputy treasurer, and many thanks once again to Eve for sticking to the job of Treasurer for so long.
As a group we continue to prosper and are in quite a healthy financial position, despite our last funding bid being turned down. It would be good to recruit some new members, however, and we now have some publicity postcards that we can distribute to people or place in strategic locations.
After a rather quiet period we now have quite a number of events on the horizon, starting with a tour round MIMA on November 21st. A visit to Newcastle Galleries, including the Laura Knight exhibition at the Laing,has been proposed for before Christmas with the possibility of a further visit to see the Lakeland Artists exhibition at the Rheged Centre, Penrith, in January or February. Geoff Hewitt will be doing us another workshop (on drawing and painting figures) in January, and there is a possibility of a workshop with Helen Gorrill (visit www.helengorrill.com) in late February or March. looking further ahead we are planning an intensive painting week at The Barn in March and, as I understand it, Carol is booking us an exhibition slot at Stockton Library, wherewe can show our work on 'Flight'

Here the results from Tuesdays life model session. I'm sorry for not making a note of whose picture is which. Now looking forward to the next session with Caroline on November 12th.
I've also booked Geoff Hewitt for another workshop in January - he suggested drawing and painting (clothed) figures. What do people think?
