'I am Margaret Feeney, artist and art tutor. Join me on this fun and inventive programme to learn how to draw. You don’t need to know anything about drawing or art! Both absolute beginners and practicing artists are welcome.'
This programme is skills-based: we begin with mark-making and look at basic drawing techniques such as cross-contour, planar structure, reductive drawing, linear volume, and so on. We will consider the elements and their organising principles. Formal instruction is interspersed with play: conceptual drawing, 3D drawing, drawing with light and with the silhouette, and the painting sketch.
Drawing isn’t about rules or a pretty picture. It is about adventure, courage, and discipline. We are drawing information from the material world to inform our thoughts and feelings. And to see that world more clearly.
Join me on this adventure- we’ll be covered in charcoal on one week, in clay the next. And our minds and skills will grow!
Poll: How important is the ability to book a doctor’s appointment online?
Hi Neighbours
Here at The Doctors we would love to hear how you prefer to book your doctor’s appointments. With busy schedules, different people find different methods easier.
For some, online booking is very convenient, you can make an appointment anytime without needing to wait on the phone. Others still prefer calling the clinic and speaking to a real person, especially if they have specific questions about their visit.
Your feedback helps us understand what works best for our patients and how we can improve access to care.

Poll: Should we ditch daylight saving? 🕰️
First introduced in New Zealand in 1927 with the passing of the Summer Time Act, it's what we know as 'Daylight Saving' and this year it ends on the first Sunday in April.
While we do get to sleep in this time around, some people would like to scrap the clock tinkering for good.
And why? Some evidence suggests the time changes are bad for our health as they mess with sleep patterns leading to short-term fatigue and affecting mood. Meanwhile the hour change is frustrating for farmers and a nightmare for getting the littlies to sleep. But what's your take?
-
31.5% Yes - get rid of the clock changes
-
67.6% No, I enjoy it
-
0.9% Other - I'll share below
