Painting Classes
I am starting a beginners class on weds 8th June at 10am.
The classes run for 3 hours every Wednesday Only 11 spots available. There is no need to sign up for a term, however if you miss a class you will have to catch up on your next attendance.
You will be learning the basics of colour mixing, using the colour wheel. Mixing paint, applying paint, basic drawing skills, blending paint and finally creating your own piece of art.
If you can already paint, feel free to join the class while you get on with painting your own piece. I will be there to give you help and advice along the way.
The cost is $35 per lesson, but only $25 if you provide your own acrylics and canvas.
If you would like to secure your spot I do require a $10 deposit. I will send you my bank account details if you would like to join up. Simply message me through my business FB page at artcsimpson.
Thank you
Cheryl

This Wednesday, we are having another Neighbourly Q&A session. This time with John Bracewell from Crewcut.
John Bracewell, former Black Caps coach turned Franchisee Development Manager and currently the face of Crewcut’s #Movember campaign, knows a thing or two about keeping the grass looking sharp—whether it’s on a cricket pitch or in your backyard!
As a seasoned Crewcut franchisee, John is excited to answer your lawn and gardening questions. After years of perfecting the greens on the field, he's ready to share tips on how to knock your garden out of the park. Let's just say he’s as passionate about lush lawns as he is about a good game of cricket!
John is happy to answer questions about lawn mowing, tree/hedge trimming, tidying your garden, ride on mowing, you name it! He'll be online on Wednesday, 27th of November to answer them all.

Calling All Puzzle Masters! Can You Solve This?
When John was six years old he hammered a nail into his favorite tree to mark his height.
Ten years later at age sixteen, John returned to see how much higher the nail was.
If the tree grew by five centimetres each year, how much higher would the nail be?
