I am a trained artist but haven't done any art for years due to life pressures and personal stuff. I want to bring people together to draw or paint still life such as insects FREE OF CHARGE AND WITHOUT AND CRITICISM/TEACHING GOING ON and simply because drawing is really therapeutic. My flat is far too small to have a group of people and I have no furniture. Please get back to me if you have a room with a big table and chairs and would be willing to accomodate say up to seven of us - first come first served basis all people interestred to reply here please. No tea making pullava, just all meet and get on with it for just one hour. No pressure on host if they need to cancel, and no rush to organise this. Cheers, Tommy is my real name I'm now a Lewes resident.

There are a few places where you might find a bit of space - even free for a bit of advertising. All Saints, the Turkish Baths, Grange Gardens art gallery. Also a pub reception room, if your students bought a few pints. Royal Oak, White Hart patio (subject to weather!), Snowdrop. Try general pub gardens - Juggs Kingston, Black Horse, Rights of Man. The Volley is very quiet (dead!) until the evening; that might be a good one. Best of luck.

Its not about me teaching anybody at all mate and aimed as a social thing with zero pressure on your art skills, all about just drawing for the therapeutic quality and that's it - although its a good idea to go for a public hall type of venue - sadly not getting much interest though maybe early days yet hopefully
