Dear Yogis,

With art exhibitions throughout March my house is a stockroom, paintings leaning against every wall.  My main exhibition is at The Kyneton Auction Room Gallery in Mollison Street where I will be exhibiting what my cousin called “real art”.  Even if you just go to poke around the gallery and art shop, you should.  They really do have some amazing finds.

 On Sunday the 9th there is an exhibition opening at The Mount Macedon Gallery – our Summer exhibition.  I probably won’t be there on Sunday as I am teaching a class in my own studio UNDERSTANDING AND USING ART MATERIALS, to show budding artists how to get the best from the materials they are using – papers, grounds, pencils acrylics, canvas etc etc.  If you want to chat about art or classes I will be at the Mt.Macedon gallery from 10am to 1pm on Saturday.

ALSO on Sunday the 9th is the aforementioned class in my studio about using art materials. The class will get to use different pencils, grounds, substrates… their work should be easier and better after this class. They will be refining their techniques on my materials in my studio.   If you have been struggling,  trying to force your materials to work for you and failing – then this could have been the class for you, but it is full.  You can be on the wait list for the next one – let me know.  yogafirst2@bigpond.com

 

WHATS ON IN THE STUDIO/and elsewhere.

Dear Yogis,

What an amazing few days/weeks.  Maybe I am just getting old, but the most surprising people are coming back into my life in such a lovely way.

We had a fabulous storm last night complete with dazzling light show and thunder.  The cat was worried and in spite of the heat, retreated to her anxiety bed which was the best Christmas Gift we both have ever received.

TAROT FOR THE VISION IMPAIRED:  I think I have solved all the problems and I am working on the first deck.  I will have to do these to order, but they are the product of quite a long time of experimentation (and failures).   I am sure that people with sight challenges or totally blind will make fabulous tarot readers, not distractions, and these cards will make it possible.

NAMASTE – JAHNE

Good morning yogis,

Yesterday my neighbours had a large tree removed and another trimmed severely.  I had not realised how much shade they were giving to the yoga room.  I purchased blinds years ago but hadn’t used them because the room became too dark.  Now with the trees down, the blinds are useful, and the room is shaded but not dark with the blinds down.

TAROT:  

I am about to embark on the TAROT FOR THE BLIND that I forecast a long time ago.  I have a local person who can help me translate into Braille.  It won’t be a fast job I think, but worthwhile.  Once I have the translated cards etc, I can do a zoom course for people who are blind (or not) and want to know more about the tarot, and become readers.  

THE MONTHLY LUNCH:  Because there is a clash between the Monthly yoga lunch and the Woodend Market and the new Woodend Art Market, it has been suggested that I change the date of our lunch. I would like your input please.
