Kids' Art Classes Ramping Up

Wow. What a spin I am in at the moment!
After another successful round of art classes for kids at Pigments & Palettes Art Shop here in Bathurst, I have finally responded to all the parents who have asked if I run classes throughout the school term.

Starting on Monday I will be hosting weekly classes at the art shop.

I'm pretty excited, just quietly.

I have asked the kids to commit to a "Term" which consists of four classes over an eight week period. It will be FANTASTIC to see the same little faces over four classes! We will be able to build on what we learn - something I have found tricky during the school holiday program because I have no control over who shows up. Sometimes half the class are beginners, and the other half have been coming to my art classes for the entire 2 years! 

I just adore the work these kids do. Here are a couple of favourites from the classes in January 2015:
