Term 1 Art Courses begining from 7th Februrary
Hi everyone,
Our art classes are off and running again for term 1 from the 7th Feb (next week).
Most class times are full and rearing to go. We do still have a few spots left in our Tuesday and Wednesday 3.30 - 5.00 pm classes available.
This term we are looking at still-life, and composition, and learning to look really hard at seeing, not the objects but the large tonal areas, and how light falls upon them. Experimenting with a few different mediums as we go. We will build up to a still-life painting study.
So hope you can join us. We are based in Cockle Bay.
For tweens, teens, and adults.

Smoke in Mt Wellington
Smoke has been seen coming from the crater of the Auckland maunga Mt Wellington.
Images of the smoke began appearing on social media on Friday afternoon.
Around 1.45pm, Fire and Emergency (Fenz) shift manager Josh Pennefather told the NZ Herald a crew was fighting a fire of about 60 square metres in size.
”It’s spreading up hill … [but] there’s no property at risk at this stage,” Pennefather said.
Six fire trucks were in attendance working to contain a grass fire that's spreading up the maunga.
A helicopter was on its way to assist firefighting efforts, he added.
At 2pm, Pennefather shared that the fire was contained and they were working to extinguish it, including “keeping an eye on a whole bunch of hot spots“.
