ARTWORK using acrylics will be the focus of classes starting in East Morton next month.

Sessions will run at the village institute on Mondays, from January 9, for 16 weeks.

Classes between 10am and noon, or from 1pm to 3pm, are on offer.

The course costs £176, including coffee and cakes.

A spokesperson for the institute says: "The classes are suitable for people of all abilities.

"We have a great teacher and a great course – in a welcoming and friendly setting.

"It is a chance to explore the versatile medium of acrylic paint and inks and learn about the techniques and effects that you can use to develop your work, possibly introducing mixed media.

"You will grow in confidence."
