reconciliation...


The Tea Tree Gully Library recently had and exhibition of local aboriginal arts groups for reconciliation week. This was a lovely setup in the Library foyer and most shows now will run for longer as the 2 week display just wasn't log enough really.. I checked out some great paintings and the semaphore mens wood group did a great display too..





tuesday tuesday tuesday...

Tuesday evenings at the club may be chilly but the class enthusiasm hasn't wained...we just rug up crank up the heat and drink tea!!! and with all that enthusiasm the subjects are changing, getting more challenging and frankly large.
So thats the drawing class the sculpture class and members are getting stuck into some glaze work. We're looking into what makes a glaze, what do you put together to get a glossy mix. At the moment we are using the Currie system and getting lots of tests through for the next glaze firing..
Learning about OCH&S and frankly the practicalities of getting powder into a jar... all going well some tiles will be out soon..
