Dear Yogis,

Only one bit of news that is taking up my mind this week – I have an EXHIBITION opening happening this week (Saturday September 7th) at 2pm at The Mt.Macedon Gallery.  Please pop in at 2 (or up to closing time –  at 4pm) – down the lane beside the General Store called  “The Trading Post” and next door to Dicksonian Rare Plant Nursery.   I will be there to chat about the artwork, or about a portrait for you, (or yoga).  I would love to see you.  I was trying to think how many exhibitions I have had here and around the world, and it has to be 100 (or more) considering I have been formally exhibiting since 1976 when I had my first exhibition at Monash University.  Considering how long I have been exhibiting it is amazing how few painting I have in my stock room (shelf) – Because we live in straightened times, and there is not much money around for either yoga or art, I have manicured my prices accordingly.  You can get a piece of artwork for $120 (one third of which goes to the gallery and the art group to enable it to keep operating – paying rent and services).

I am especially enjoying the medium I am using now, and will get larger and larger works completed as I master the technique.  Old fashioned photo/print/drawing transfer using paper, glue (mess) – definitely no modern gello which doesn’t give the depth, the handworked look and feel – then I overpaint, or draw, and then multiple layers of encausting wax, put on, dabbed off, until I get the right, aged look.  When I am happy I do more painting, more gilding.

 

WHATS ON.
