21.01.2022 A very busy evening in the studio yesterday with two talented photographers. The beginnings of some beautiful encaustic photographs are under way. We had some laughs, challenges and some beautiful works emerging. Overall a lot of information for these gorgeous woman to absorb, take away and put into practice. Four and a half hours is just not enough time.

19.01.2022 Just over half way through our 5 day Abstract Painting with Cold Wax Workshop. Today we introduced participants to reduction techniques and a multitude of mono printing options. Watched a slide presentation and starting to think about 'intentions' was the order of the day. Thoroughly enjoying these engaging, creative ladies. Adding just a few pics from today.

14.01.2022 My ponderings for this morning. Being even just "a little different" can be painful at times. It may be important for us to consider, and maybe question why it is that the more ‘authentic’ and personal the art becomes, the less willing the population at large are willing to embrace it. This is not because it is not ‘good’. Rather it is not popular and readily accepted/understood by society at large. I wonder why we’re not educated to accept and embrace the different, deep, brave, extraordinary content? Why does it unsettle us so?

13.01.2022 Three panels underway, base layers down. Will get into these tomorrow with some oil sticks.

11.01.2022 My Wednesday morning group are progressing well. Today, Carol completed her beautiful cold wax paintings.

06.01.2022 I came across this little quote by Arshile Gorky in some of my old study notes recently and thought I would share it. "Abstraction allows man to see with his mind what he cannot see physically with his eyes Abstract art enables the artist to perceive beyond the tangible, to extract the infinite out of the finite. It is the emancipation of the mind. It is an exploration into unknown areas. Arshile Gorky

05.01.2022 Another busy morning in the studio today. Cold wax enthusiasts on a learning curve. Lovely group, missed Louise today.

04.01.2022 Another creative Wednesday, only managed a couple of pics this morning. Louise finished one of her soft cold wax paintings. The photo doesn't do this image justice. There are many intriguing subtle areas of interest in Louise's painting. More photos next Wednesday as these ladies develop their works to a conclusion. Plenty of experimentation taking place along the journey.

03.01.2022 Second last day. Abstract Painting with Cold Wax Mixed Media. This talented, enthusiastic group of participants are enjoying their journey into cold wax, developing their own original voices, defining and clarifying their intentions, learning new techniques and having fun along the way. Last day Thursday.

03.01.2022 Good example of why you need to adhere cold works on paper to a board asap after completing. Take a look at this video.

02.01.2022 Something very special in the raku kiln today.

02.01.2022 Five years ago today I was in Drezzo, Italy undertaking a fabulous Cold Wax Painting with Rebecca Crowell. How the years have flown by. At the end of the workshop , we all swopped works. Rebecca has this little painting of mine. Such rich memories from that workshop.

01.01.2022 Crackle glazed vessel. Lumina porcelain fired to 1300C #fineporcelain #coolartgallerycoolum #interior #trending

01.01.2022 Day 3 of Cooroy workshop. Just over half way. Great group of artists. Dived into monoprinting and reduction techniques today. Exploring 'intention', will develop and and refine further tomorrow.
