GLADSTONE PICTURE FRAMING
MAY 2009
 Sorry that we're half way through May and I'm only managing to get this out now. I have been trying to organise the demo on gouache with Jill from Winsor and Newton. Unfortunately this will not be happening just yet. A date for this demo and the 'DECOR ART WORKSHOP' will be finalised once Jill is in contact with me and her life has settled down. I'm sorry for any inconvenience.
BUT LOOK BELOW FOR THE GREAT LINE-UP UNTIL THE MARTY HANSON!
 
CALENDAR FOR 2009
WORKSHOPS AND DEMOS ON THE DECK
    
JUNE 5th - 8th                                             AGNES WATERS WATERCOLOUR WEEKEND.
This will be a trip down to Agnes for some watercolours. The places have been filled but there may be a possibility of squeezing someone else in if you are still interested.
 
JULY 17th 12-2pm                                 FREE 'Demo on the Deck' on the NEW MATISSE mediums and PAPERS
This will be an informative session on the lovely new textures from Matisse - all really well priced from only $4.60/bottle. Also you will learn about all the different papers available and what they can be used for.

AUGUST 8th 9am -  4.30pm                            STRUCTURE WORKSHOP                                  
This promises to be a very EXCITING workshop taken by the wonderfully talented and fun tutor Jo Williams. We will be holding the workshop on structures and forms and working with positive and negatives. The price for the whole day which includes Jo's insightful and delightful tuition, lunch and some freebies from the shop is $45. We will need a $20 non-refundable deposit on booking. BOOKINGS FOR THIS WORKSHOP ARE NOW OPEN! HURRY HURRY - the word is out and places are being swallowed up rapidly.
 
 
OCTOBER 17th and 18th                       LIFE DRAWING WORKSHOP
Once again we will be holding a Life workshop with a professional model being flown up from Brisbane. This is truly a wonderful experience and I urge all artists to make use of this fabulous opportunity (whether you are new to art or an old hat!). We have had some very successful life drawing weekends with some excellent work being produced and I'm looking forward to the same again this year.
 The cost for the whole weekend will be $130. If you can only make the one day the cost will be $90. We will require a $50 non-refundable deposit on booking your place. NUMBERS ARE LIMITED so if you want to get in on this opportunity BOOKINGS WILL BE OPEN FROM JUNE 15th. However if you are interested - give me a call so that I can put your name down to contact on the 15th. These places are snapped up and I would hate anyone to miss out if they are keen! I WILL KEEP YOU REMINDED!


IN THE SHOP:
WE'RE COMIING UP TO THE END OF OUR FINANCIAL YEAR WITH STOCK-TAKES etc AND SO THERE WILL BE LOTS OF VERY REASONABLE FRAMES OUT THE FRONT as well as 10% off all papers in JUNE.
 
Hope to see you through the month
