Hello,

Well the end of the year is very near and I am sure everyone is looking forward to beginning another. I sure am!

I have been busy with teaching a few workshops both local and away. I have started a collaboration with a local venue called The Workshop Bar. This venue hosts artists and tutors to conduct their particular workshop in a very adaptable environment. I hope to be able to post some upcoming dates for my workshops in the new year.

I have just completed a workshop at Wandoan State School at their invitation. It was a great success and the kids all enjoyed the fun of learning to use watercolour. It was very hot there though, 45.5 degrees C. A bit of a shock to the system but air con is a great thing.

So, in doing all these away things, I have not knuckled down to do some painting for myself of late but have sold a few which is always nice when Christmas is looming only weeks away.

I have managed to paint a quick little painting     of a Scarlet Macaw just to keep my hand in.
