Richard Rogers
Judd House came alive with creative colour and activity on Wednesday 27 April as an enthusiastic audience  enjoyed an informative demonstration from renowned Adelaide artist Richard Rogers. 
 
With a good attendance by members, Richard talked us through his process of using a limited (though vibrant) palette and brush selection, with his favoured brand of acrylics,  fast fixer and reopening medium, together with the versatile water misting bottle;  answering questions,  imbuing confidence and explaining processes along the way. 
 
It was a thoroughly  entertaining afternoon, as Richard created two stunning landscapes .. making the process of working with acrylic medium seem like a positively painless, pleasurable, quick and simple process.  Oil and watercolour enthusiasts were convincingly converted!
 
As a result of such a successful and beneficial afternoon, there was unanimous interest in having Richard return for a full day, hands on workshop.  His enthusiasm, versatility, skill and encouragement will bring benefits for all wishing to attend……. watch the website, noticeboard and email for details.
 
Thanks to Colleen for the photos and for arranging such a great event.

The Big Issue - and a small 'brag' ...

1/4/2016

The Big Issue magazine is a fortnightly, independent magazine that is sold on the streets by homeless, marginalised and disadvantaged people.

This item from our Robert Martin:

   "I go to Sturt Street Community Centre and three weeks ago I was approached by a lady who had seen my paintings of 'The Big Issue' personalities.  She asked me to paint “Joao”, who also sells The Big Issue - and attends Sturt street.

I was unaware that the group from Hutt street were forming a band. They have put my painting of Joao on the cover of the CD."

( A great list of tracks: We will Make It, Mustang Sally, I am Not a Busimess Man, Imagine, Holy Night). 

Congratulations Robert.  (Rewards can come when least expected!)
