Ever wondered whether art, movies and theatre reflect back to us the symbolic truth of our human nature? In what way can these narratives teach us about the universal forces in our psyche? What can we learn from the heroes and heroines, dragons and villains, witches and magicians-scientists in our modern myths? Where are we as individuals subject to the same "quest or struggle" as the protagonist? When are we collectively unconsciously projecting our shadow onto the villain in modern myths? How …

A group of people who meet sporadically in Cambridge to improve whatever level of drawing they have by doing drawing without the worry that people will be narked that you're drawing them. Sharing and critique is encouraged. Anyone interested in creating visual art is welcome, but it's probably best to stick to non-messy media: pencils, pens, brush-pens, or laptops, since we want to be allowed back!

Anyway, whatever interest you have in art, it would be good to hear from you :)
