Friday 5th October

I have had a pretty busy few days with people visiting and getting ready for 25 kids coming to paint with me today. It's very exciting I love it when I get a group of kids coming to paint. We are going to paint big paintings of our surroundings.

Yesterday I had some great news we have Carlotte Shophia Fazzini-Jones joined our family yesterday around 2pm.

Amanda is well and our little girl is perfect too!

Grandpa Vic was over the moon and is looking forward to holding her in his arms!

She looks so peaceful!

It's exciting when a new addition comes into the family. The next one is Nessies in April and I think she will have a girl too!

I got emailed this photo yesterday from a trip Carolyn and I took to Mangaweka yesterday.
We have planned to go back there next month and do a glass casting workshop which will be fun!
The people in Mangaweka rock!
I'm having a few friends over tonight to have a few drinks and finish our paintings for the festival they are having.
Anyway I better go and jump in the shower and get ready for the kids I will post some photo's later.
My message for the day was: See yourself and others through the eyes of an angel, and you will see a beautiful world that is light, bright, and hopeful.

Art Every Day Month Day 13 - Basic Colour Theory

An understanding of the basics of colour theory is essential for every artist and increases the possibilities for your work. Colours are, after all, one of the basic tools of painting. Here are some of the things I have learnt. The Colour Wheel Most color wheels are based on three primary colours, three secondary colours, and the six intermediates formed by mixing a primary with a secondary, known as tertiary colours, for a total of 12 main divisions; some add more intermediates, for 24 named colors like this one.  Primary colours:  Are the three colours that cannot be created by mixing other colours together  - red, yellow, and blue. Secondary colours:  A secondary colour is made by mixing two primary colours together: red and yellow to get orange, yellow and blue to get green, or red and blue to get purple. The secondary colour depends on the proportion in which you mix the two primaries. For example, if you add more red than yellow, you get a reddish orange,...

Art Every Day Month Day 9 - Numbers

11 RULES FOR LIFE ONE - Give people more than they expect and do it cheerfully. TWO - Marry a man/woman you love to talk to. As you get older, their conversational skills will be as important as any other. THREE - Don't believe all you hear, spend all you have or sleep all you want.
