‘CREATIVE MIXED MEDIA WORKSHOP 2009’ BILOELA With Lucja Ray

Banana Shire Art Gallery Assoc. & RADF
supported and funded -
‘CREATIVE MIXED MEDIA WORKSHOP 2009’ BILOELA
With Lucja Ray
Creativity and Mixed Media go hand in hand and is an exciting
partnership that covers any genre from still life, figurative, landscape to
abstract and non subjective art.
This workshop allowed each participant to
explore diverse materials that can evolve into any subject or non subjective matter with an
individualistic and exciting approach using and incorporating simple techniques to alter your
perspective in order to make your art more original and exciting. All participants explored different ways to approach this creative process. Short demonstrations as well as artistic theory were used to build these works with one on one support within the group environment allowing for each artwork to be unique and individual.
This workshop was fun but at the same time challenging when
exploring the individual voice.

13 participants attended the workshop - (L to R)
Jeannie Sturt,Michele Lyons Briggs,Maria Wiley, Terry Deen, Tutor -Lucja Ray, Kym Simms, Glenda Semple and Judy VanderHave.
Absent -Jenelle Wood, Val Hick, Larraine Head, Olga Bath,
Rosemary Anderson and Emily Davis.

Tracey Hewitt & BAVA@ Rhubarb 2009

October 2009...Rhubarb Gallery Space in Theodore

are featuring the textile and mixed media art of
Tracey Hewitt.
http://traceyhewitt.blogspot.com/

Jenelle Wood, Glenda Semple & I travelled over to Theodore to surprise Tracey & Fleur and admired a very talented lady's artwork. Tracey, Fleur, Jacqui and her friends were all very supportive on the night. Well Done :)

If you haven't heard of Rhubarb before it is a boutique in Theodore on the Boulevard.
At their store they do a couple of things that are a little different.

1. each month Rhubarb supports a charity through our Cause of the Month.
Each month $1 from each item sold goes to our nominated charity or community group that month.

2. Rhubarb serve a beautiful tea for two. You can some and sit in store on
our lounges and enjoy a pot of our specialty tea and a Rhubarb
cupcake. Each month we have a different tea to try aside from our
regular tea menu.

3. and most importantly Rhubarb have a Gallery Space. Each month Rhubarb profile
a local artist in our Gallery and have a in store event on the first
Friday of the month to profile that artist. We work with the artist to
find a way for the arrangement to be mutually agreeable. This is
usually a consignment based model.

Rhubarb is writing to you for two reasons. Firstly to let BAVA artists know that in October we are featuring the textile and mixed media art of Tracey Hewitt.
An invitation to our 'First Friday' gallery event to profile Tracey's works.
And secondly Rhubarb would love to open this opportunity up to any of BAVA Artists to feature their works in the Gallery Space.

Any interested artists are encouraged to email Fleur

rhubarbboutique@me.com
and give a brief overview of what they do and what they would like to display.
Fleur will slot them into the calendar and will take care of all the marketing and promotional material.
