Another busy day
Happy New Year 2019
New Year, new tablecloth
Nice and cosy
As usual Patricia finished a painting

the last week before Christmas
A couple of Christmassy themed paintings going on
Jane’s bag of Christmas cards ready to go
Sally had done this at home but it deserves to be here

Merry Christmas !!

trays and bottles
Jeanette was using decoupage to make an animal tray and I used a page from an Angie Lewin calendar for this small drinks tray. Jane and Brigid came this afternoon and were decorating bottles for Christmas
A couple of sketches from Chris and Steve
Some works in progress by Jackie, Dawn and Frances
This almost looks like a tapestry – an acrylic from Jane
… and this is finished – from Jan
Creative Writing for Christmas
We are offering three sessions for Creative Writing on the following dates – 6th, 13th and 20th December on Thursday mornings from 10.30 to 12.30. Come and join us for some Christmas writing and mince pies !
The last life class of the year
Decorative bottles
Jane Inglis came to do the workshop. I think they all look great
New fire
I am a bit late in posting these pictures of the fire. We had it installed about two weeks ago and it has proved to be a great success. We were a bit worried that it would not cope with heating the great expanse of the barn, especially as the roof is not insulated. But as you can see, lots of happy, warm people. Thanks to Divison Bois at St. Sornin for the very efficient installation.
bits and pieces
This is something that Cate did last week – it’s big and works really well – love the trees
Frances is trying out a method of painting in oils with only three colours – I look forward to seeing the finished painting
Jane is doing the same painting – so far in pastel and water colour – next oil and acrylic
I love this by Steve – beautiful colours
and this one by Chris has such movement
Dawn was using charcoal on a canvas to create a Van Gogh
One of Patricia’s quick paintings
This is a commission – once I am happy with the face, I can relax
