    Leesburg, VA—An exhibit of work by Loudoun Sketch Club artists will open August 5th at Gallery One in the Loudoun County Government Center in Leesburg, VA. “Beyond Sketching” will be a wonderful display of local plein-air and studio works by members of Loudoun County’s oldest arts organization. In addition to the art, information about the history of the club will be on display.

    Member artists are serious artists working in a variety of mediums such as oil, acrylic, gouache, pastel, watercolor, sculpture, photography and pencil. Many are professionals with a wide range of experiences and notoriety, but the club is open to dedicated amateurs as well. The only requirement is a willingness to work and improve. This inclusive nature is part of what makes the Loudoun Sketch Club unique. 

    President Pat Whittle reflects, "When we gather, an energy seems to envelope the group as ideas, methods and styles are shared. We are all striving to improve our art. Weaving together our diverse backgrounds lifts every artist in a way that welcomes, supports and inspires."

    “Beyond Sketching” runs from August 5th to September 5th. Access to Gallery One is through the public entrance of the Loudoun County Government Center at 1 Harrison St SE in Leesburg, VA. The building is open M-F from 8:30am to 5pm. Simply enter through security and mention you are there to see the art in Gallery One, which is just to the right. Many of the pieces are for sale. Contact information for the artists is available in a binder at the exhibit should you wish to inquire about a piece. 

    Founded in 1944, the Loudoun Sketch Club is a group of nearly 200 working artists who regularly gather to develop and promote their art through workshops, plein-air outings, art shows, and sales. The Club welcomes artists working in all media and at all skill levels with an interest in advancing their art in the company of other artists. Those interested in joining or learning more about the Club can go to https://www.loudounsketchclub.com for further information.
