About us

Theme is: Into the Blue

'The sea' by Carolyn, Barnet u3a

I love the sea and I am generally a bit of a realist when I paint but decided to have a go at impressionism and this is the result.

'Loch Ness' by Christine, Caterham u3a

My picture is Loch Ness in winter giving a very blue hue. It was produced in acrylic in the pointalism style from a photo sent be friends who had moved to a picturesque Scotland.

Blue hues at sea by Dennis, Northallerton u3a

'Passage of life' by Nicholas, Hampstead Garden Suburb

My abstract watercolour shows the passage of life all in the blue.

'Chefchaouen, Morocco' by Annie, Pontyclun u3a

I saw a picture in a newspaper about a street in the blue medina, Chefchaouen, Morocco and it made me think "Into the Blue" straight away! I used my usual water-mixable oils to paint my version.

'Nectar' by Janes, Interest Groups Online

A bee enjoying nectar from a bluebell. Acrylic on canvas board.

'Dreams' by Vyanjana, Barnet u3a

Thoughts beacome dreams .....when you look......into the blue.....

'Blues' by Salim, Harrow u3a

Created at the end of the last century, blues music is a style of music that is heavily influenced by African American history. Blues music originated in the Southern United States during the late 19th century, created by African Americans. 

'Egypt' by Julie, Baddow and Galleywood u3a

This painting is in response to a seascape theme set by the leader of the Artful Adventures group I have recently joined. The inspiration is from a holiday brochure and is a reminder of my own adventure under the water in Egypt sever'Egypt' by al years ago.

'Enjoying the view' by Ian, Witham & District (Essex) u3a.

A pen and watercolour image of a group of paragliders against an almost clear blue sky, having launched themselves 'into the blue' and now, presumably, enjoying the view.

'Bluebells' by Janet, Bradford on Avon u3a

I was inspired to paint ‘Into the Blue’ because I have enjoyed all the lovely bluebells on display at this time of the year. I have seen a lot while travelling along on a steam train.

'Seagull' by Lindesy, Cardiff u3a

This is my acrylic painting of a seagull in flight. 

'Splash' by Dawn, Ilkley & District u3a

A mixed medium of some making a big splash into the blue water. 

'Saltburn seascape' by Wendy, Sherburn & Villages u3a

My painting is of the sea at Saltburn with the sun sinking into the blue. It was painted in acrylic.

'Into the deep, deep blue sea...' by Brigitte, Locks Heath u3a
