20/02/2018 – Our February meeting kicked off with a fabulous demonstration by Lake Macquarie artist and teacher Deanne Newland. Deanne has developed quite a name for herself with her wonderfully vibrant alcohol ink paintings and is always happy to share all her tips. It was inspirational just to see the colourful works of art she brought along and watching her show her technique in creating such work was a great opportunity for us all. Deanne also shared some tips on creating an art journal – a great way to capture holiday memories, something she will be doing shortly when she takes her first group to Vietnam for an art tour. Bet they will all have a fantastic time!
