“Exploring Art” is a group for people who want to try out techniques and ideas in Art. It is for people who have painted before, but maybe lack inspiration at the moment, and for those who are new to Art and want some idea of how to get going.

A few examples of group members work in different media is shown below - for our full gallery click on the 'Exploring Art Flickr Gallery' link below.
