PAINTING for BEGINNERS - 2 hour lesson for Parents & Children
WATERCOLOUR PAINTING for BEGINNERS for ALL THE FAMILY Sat 31 July 10am - 12.
During the July school holidays a few parents asked if they could they please join their youth so I set up a class especially for them. The class went so well and was so much fun I have set up more, one this Saturday and another Sat 14 Aug. The subject will be Mt Ruapehu on a calm day after a cold winter southerly has just passed through.
$25 for both youth and parents, includes all materials supplied, just turn up and you'll all leave 2 hours later buzzing with your completed painting and a beaming smile of creative satisfaction on your dial. (Note to parents - sorry wine is only served during the evening ‘Wine & Watercolour sessions :)
No previous art experience is required and no need to worry about drawing as the painting outlines will already be drawn out for your to enable us to focus on the joys of watercolour painting in a relaxed and enjoyable, step-by-step procedure. These workshops are suitable for both beginners and more experienced watercolour artists who would like to fine tune their skills and style.
Please inquire about other youth classes as well as our fun Wine & Watercolour evenings, ideal for group social events and parties with a difference.

scumbags
There are some really awful people around at the moment. This is what happened on Sunday.
We live in Hinemoa Street opposite the Waiwhetu Stream. At around 3.40 in the afternoon I was looking out my window and saw a car pull up and start to feed the geese and ducks out the window. Then The passenger an asian man jumped out and threw himself onto a goose. he picked it up and put it the boot of the car.
I immediately ran over and stood in front of his car to stop him moving I also called my husband to help. A lovely man was riding his bike and saw it and stopped to help me. The driver tried to drive into me but I didnt move. He tried telling us it was his pet. These are wild geese.
They had a cage in the boot and some wire all ready to catch the poor bird like they have done it before. My husband took the bird from the car and released it. I then moved out of the way and after lots of abuse from the driver they drove off threatening to come back and get more.
No one should be allowed to take these beautiful birds and certainly not like this. they are all starting to have wee babies at the moment the whole thing was so upsetting to me. Another neighbour further down the road also saw it all happen.
Please keep a look out for this car and if you see them by the stream go over and watch them lets all stop this happening.
