IT'S JUST A BLANK WALL....

.......but shortly it will be our first exhibition!  John E.N. Smith's Works from the back room will be hung as soon as our new Gallery System arrives from our supplier, Philcam of Launceston.

It's so exciting and great to be able at last to present quality art to our visitors!

We have an eclectic collection of John's pleasing work to hang - 5 watercolours, 3 oils and a pencil sketch.  Affordable, good sizes and typical of John's exacting attention to detail and accuracy to subject, all well framed by John Crook of Launceston.



FANTASTIC FELTED FIBRES

Our Felting Workshop last Sunday with Juju designer June Hope was just wonderful.  Those attending were surprised at their output and I have enclosed some finished pieces for you to look at.  By combining wool, alpaca fibre, wools, silks and other embelishments, the results were absolutely beautiful!  On average, the fabrics were 500 x 400 or larger and big enough to either make up into a garment or accessory, or perhaps frame and hang as a piece of textile art.

Thanks to June for her excellent teaching technique and congratulations to the participants on their achievements! 

We will be holding another workshop with June in the second half of the year.  If you would like to put your name down, email me and we will send you details when they become available.
