The friendly Omega taverna in Finikounda was our on loco venue this week…<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

We were made very welcome by Yeorgo, who hosted us in the absence of the owner Anastasia, who was unexpectedly in hospital….<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

We started, as usual, with some wrong-handed and some blind-contour drawing to quieten down the busy mind and warm up a bit – here’s a great one of me!<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

This fabulously loose and evocative sketch was done from the first floor of the taverna….<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

and this glorious collection of tables, chairs and pots, drawn from the side of the Omega, is actually of the taverna next door…<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

There was, as usual, a fairly broad choice of subject matter…<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

so the artists could choose their favourite subjects….<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

or explore new territory….<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Of course, sometimes the subjects got moved around a bit by visiting diners….<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

This delightful painting of Finikounda was painted by Anastasia, the owner of the taverna, way back in 1955!<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

and this fabulous mermaid was expertly painted by Tracy a couple of years ago..<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

This lovely balcony-view was done by one of the group members at home during the week…<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

and these two paintings were started ‘on loco’ last week and finished later at home.<\/p>\n

Nice work everyone – well done.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
