Nothing ventured, nothing gained

We've been having some interesting conversations at UAB about the nature of learning and the risk involved in having a go. Especially when it comes to art there is a certain vulnerability that surrounds the unknown. It is exactly this realm of the unknown that we enjoy discovering and uncovering at Urban Art Binge... as a creative community we can all stand on the edge together and feel very comfortable in our uncomfortability. This week at New Farm Park we tried some sketching with watercolour and the outcomes were surprising and beautiful. We've  chosen the following sample of images to illustrate this notion of risk and the joy that comes from learning new skills. Here's to life & here's to personal growth.

Alee Lee is on her 2nd round of Bingeing with UAB and the progression of her drawing skill is remarkable. She's learning to really look and immerse herself in her surroundings on site. Nice one A, we're very proud of you.

Jeff Cowan is enjoying all of the freedom that retirement has to offer and is embracing his creative side. He has never used watercolour before, and yet look at this gorgeous sketch. Well done G for trying something new!

Maureen has a very painterly eye and is learning to use sketching as a foundation/ support for her creative goals. Here she's inspired by a small dingy on the riverside of New Farm Park.
