My life as an artist

Picture
Rebecca De Mendoca gave a lively and animated talk outlining her development as an artist. Having studied theatrical design she went on to work on may projects including Andrew Lloyd Webber's 'Apects of Love', where she was enthralled by the leading man - Michael Ball.

For many years she worked with Kevin McCloud and was responsible for creating the fruit and vegetables that adorn the ceiling of Harrod's food hall.

Her passion has always been the use of pastels to capture the energy and vitality of her subjects. Her portfolio encompasses striking images of dance, children and most recently horses.

Rebecca runs courses in using Pastel - more details on her website http://www.rebeccademendonca.co.uk/.





After tea and coffee the Beryl read out the report from the Core Hill member who was our group delegate at the National AGM which was held in Cardiff
The members agreed to support the fund raising of Sidmouth Scouts, for a new meeting place, by hosting a coffee morning in October.
The Tour of Britain is starting from Sidmouth on Friday 20th Sep and support has been requested from local organisations in hosting the event. The WI will provide refreshments.
