We're working hard to get ready for our exhibition at the Richmond Public Library. Come and meet us at the opening reception on November 6, Saturday, from 2-3:30! See you there. 

Merafrooz is choosing to work in pen and ink. She finds the detail had power and suits her patient nature. 




Ghayda' loves to work in colour! She tried oil paints for the first time this week. 


Ameer is using his natural drawing skills to tell a story about his family. He will ink it and colour it at home... and we can't wait to see it next week!

Our last class! We all felt sad - and stayed late finishing up our graphic novel art pieces for the exhibition on November 6.  Ghayda' enjoyed using oil paints for the second class in a row. She seems like a pro suddenly! Merafroosh put a picture of me into her work!  Bardia turned a self portrait into a poster of his life philosophy.  Ghayda' is so pleased with how far her art has progressed in 10 weeks! Her original piece is on the right and her current portrait is on the left.  Ameer was focussed today on finishing various pieces and brought his mum to give her support!  We'll get together again in three weeks at our library show!

Our class has finished and we all enjoyed the reception at the Richmond Public Library. Merafrooz and Ghayda spoke to the audience and we posed for pictures with our artworks.  Ghayda and Merafrooz brought their children.  Bardia's artwork added his usual charm to the event.  Merafrooz showed a wonderful collection of varied pieces - both highly personal and full of helpful advice for newcomers to Canada.  Amir shared some brave and personal stories with touching skill. Ghayda produced some amazingly detailed and charming pieces detailing her new life in Canada.  Thank you to the City of Richmond Engaging Artists with Community residency and Richmond Multicultural Community Services for facilitating. We all hope to have more art classes!
