ARTIST Ursula Stone is the new tutor for the weekly life classes hosted by Chequer Mead every Monday.

Ursula, an art therapist who has taught at the Tobias School of Art, runs the two hour classes between 11am and 1pm each week for anyone who wants to drop in and draw – no advance booking is required and there is no commitment to a minimum number of sessions.

The 10 fee covers the cost of the model’s fees, and easels and boards are provided.

Ursula, who tutors every fourth session, is also available for more informal guidance and advice during the other three, and suggests themes which artists may like to explore.

As part of the celebrations to mark Chequer Mead’s birthday there will be an art exhibition in November which will feature the work of artists who attend the Life Classes regularly. There will be no fee for taking part in the exhibition.
