Cuppa @ Bean Barn
Interview with Dr Caroline Ellison
Dawn had a most wonderful interview with Dr Caroline Ellison from Flinders University who is doing a research on how disability artists go about their creative work. She thought that we were the best example of an artist and mentor couple she has ever met around the world. We were so very happy to be talking to her and hope to cultivate a special relationship with her.

Today's art class @BRACE
Dawn gave two introduction to art workshops at BRACE today.
Starts with a powerpoint presentation on care of brushes and then a session on mark making and mixing colours. They were well received.
On my easels-work in progress
Day 2, or final now, Dawn likes it better now and thinks it is finished, Helamen thinks it is reminded him of a Chinese doorpost greeting or welcome sign.

Today's painting-Day One
This is the first day of painting, has 3 layers, background, glowing orangy colour, and laying down some patterns might be useful. Decided to have something hidden in the centre.
In the past, after "beguiled", I was stymied about the middle of the painting, what to have there, now I hope this works!
The Sketchbook Project 2012
yiphee, Dawn received her sketchbook today, and the world tour will be coming to Melbourne for the First time, out of the States.
Dawn is excited to fill it up with drawings depicting her theme of "Hope".

On my easels-work in progress
Started out on a new painting on a primed canvas (1220x1524mm) in the colours that I liked which I used before in "Prancing in Paris". I feel these colours goes well with each other and I layered them in blocks and worked in the lines until they got somewhere.

AS IZ Gallery @ Portalington
This afternoon we visited the Bellarine artists community at Portalington. They meet at a gallery/studio space and have a lazy Sunday afternoon, drinking wine, talking and appraising art and listening to live music. Vim and Ash invited us to join in. It was very nice to meet new people and network.
