This class is the perfect opportunity to learn the basics of two wonderful paint mediums; how to mix, blend and layer watercolour and how to apply acrylic. Explore how to make dynamic compositions that produce interesting paintings using still Life, photographs and sketches as inspiration.
On warm days in the Spring and Summer, this class is sometimes taught outside, taking advantage of the stunning scenery of Waterlow Park.
Our art tutor, Sharon Finmark, lives in North London and studied at Central St. Martins School of Art. She has had several books published on painting and drawing.

Highgate Hill, oil on canvas.
We are delighted to shows a significant body of work from acclaimed local artist Philip Sanderson, who captures townscapes and other scenes from a wide variety of sources, particularly London and Highgate. He aims for a lightness of touch and fluidity that is at once engaging and appealing. At the same time, his work retains a discipline and structure that gives it weight, so that the overall impression is one of beauty and substance.
Philip paints in oils and watercolours and says that he “endeavours to represent subjects in a loose and attractive way”. His work is particularly concerned with the effect of light, particularly sunlight, and how this gives subtly contrasting tones of light and dark to his subject matter. He often depicts people in his pictures, representing life and movement and adding another layer of interest and relevance to the familiar local scenes.
For many years an active member of the Highgate Watercolour Group and a participant in art courses and local art shows, Philip also had a career in the NHS, where he was a consultant microbiologist working in Edgware and Barnet. He studied problems of infections acquired within hospitals and helped to found and edit a journal dedicated to this subject.
This exhibition is an opportunity to see a collection of pictures from the last five years, following a successful exhibition at St. Martin-in-the-Fields. Most of the works are oils; all work will be for sale.
Highgate Gallery open Tuesday-Friday 1-5pm, Saturday 11am-4pm, Sunday 11am-5pm; closed Mondays.
Japan 2018, 121 mins (dir. Hirokazu Kore-eda) starring Sakura Ando and Lily Franky.
In 2019 the Film Society showed Kore-eda’s film ‘Our Little Sister’, and also in 2016 his ‘Like Father, Like Son’.
Kore-eda’s latest, and arguably finest, film is a profoundly moving drama about a poverty-stricken group of individuals who live together ostensibly as a family and who petty-thieve to make ends meet. One cold winter’s night they come across a shivering little girl foraging for scraps and decide to take her in for just a few days. After noticing signs of abuse, however, they resolve to keep her and they all live happily, if scrappily, together until an unforeseen incident reveals the long-buried secrets which test the bonds that unite them. The film paints a picture of poverty in modern Japan rarely seen on our screens.
Doors open at 7.30pm. Free drinks available. Film starts at 8pm.

Koichiro Honda has started to make inroads into the world of piano recitals and orchestral concerts and is fast gaining a reputation for pianistic excellence. His eclectic choice of pieces reflects his enquiring musical curiosity. His programmes always include unusual items that educate and arouse interest.
In this recital he will be supported by Duo Serenata (Paul Ellis-Howe & Brian Benedict) who will perform Beethoven and Debussy.
Koichiro (Kou) is a former member of Serenata, performing with the Ensemble on many occasions as soloist and chamber musician. We are privileged that he has chosen to perform his only London concert this year at Lauderdale House (his favourite London venue) under the auspices of Serenata.
The Serenata group are delighted to have the opportunity to work with Koichiro again and proud to be sponsors of this evening’s recital in this beautiful, historic house.
Admission by numbered tickets available in advance: £15 (£10 concessions), from SERENATA Box Office, 22 Chestnut Avenue, LONDON N8 8NY
Telephone enquiries: 020 8340 2983 (Brian) or 07958 911639 (Paul)
Seating for this event is limited. Please book in advance. Some tickets may be available at the door.

The class is suitable for beginners and is friendly and inclusive. Style is Hatha yoga with various influences – gentle, but still delivering strength and flexibility. Come and try a class to enhance your sense of wellbeing, release stress and tension and to experience deep relaxation. Mats provided, free parking (for now, but check signs!) no need to book – just turn up. The class is in the beautiful church – it’s set back a bit and has big blue doors. The class is mixed level/mixed ability/mixed age. I am a registered BWY teacher and fully insured. For more info about me/my yoga, have a look at my website
