Reverse painting with David Setter
Have you ever wondered what it’s like to create a painting, illustration or doodle backwards?
Colour first and then ‘trapping’ that colour with line work….It’s a lovely loose way to create, and it eliminates the need to attempt to paint neatly to the line. A time saving, fun and improvised way of creating pictures which works well in any medium.
We’ll be looking at and listening to the wonderful work of Jonathan le Vay for inspiration. David will also bring examples of his own floral paintings along to the session, and will be demonstrating tips and tricks on doodle character creation.
We will be using music to create one line (continuous line) drawings to find out if the tempo of music plays a part in how we draw.

Book Launch - John Byrne: Useful Art - How Activist Artists Can Change the World
2026-03-06 18:30 - 20:30 | Tŷ Pawb, Market Street, Wrexham, LL13 8BB
Launch event including an In Conversation with the author.
This smart, provocative book reveals how Useful Art is changing the world.
Does art have to be beautiful? What if it can be useful instead? In this cutting-edge book, John Byrne shows how the concept of ‘Useful Art’ is helping artists and communities fight back against the neoliberal takeover of our spaces, services and lives.
Byrne demonstrates that networks of artist-led activism and community-based direct action can provide a collaborative playbook of impactful and inclusive alternatives. From Turner Prize-winning urban regeneration projects to bakeries, vegetable gardens and multi-use arts spaces, Useful Art has enormous potential for bringing people together, recovering and preserving local skills and knowledge and reclaiming artistic endeavour for real-world good.
Exploring an international selection of projects, exhibitions and activism, this important new work champions the shift from aesthetics to use value, challenging traditional ways of seeing the world symbolically through art. Reaching beyond the financial logic of the art world, Byrne shows how Useful Art can offer an artistic toolkit for implementing radical change.
This free launch event will include an In Conversation between John and Tŷ Pawb Creative Director Jo Marsh about the book, the journey that led John to writing it, and about some of the examples within it.
Light refreshments provided and the event is free to attend, and the book will be on sale on the night.
