Art Squared Member's Day

Making postcards for the Aos exhibition 'Distant Voices'

A good day was had by those who went along to the Nice Cafe in Kyleakin on Saturday (12th Sep) for an afternoon of postcard making. These will be displayed as part of the Aos 'Distant Voices' exhibition at Portree Library, opening on 21st Sep.

A reminder to all members wishing to participate that we will be upstairs at the glass cases in the library next Monday (21st) at 2pm. Either drop your finished postcards in to us then, or get in touch to see if we can pick them up en route.

Any volunteers able to help set up the display would be much appreciated.

Photos from the recent members' event in Portree. Aos members met for the afternoon to make small stamps based on the idea of 'Living on an Island'. A collaborative digital print was created using the printed stamps for the McLellan Festival Touring Exhibition.

'Sea Shapes' - The Final Print	Detail of Printed Stamps Once the blocks were cut, we used regular ink pads to stamp our designs onto paper. Each of us prepared small squares using our printed stamps, which were then grouped together in a map style. The final print will be exhibited in a touring exhibition around the islands of Scotland.
