CAG Notes from Metka Skrobar
Term 4 Materials List and Class notes for Metka Skrobar October 2014
Subject: Notes from Metka Skrobar
Hi Everyone,
Here are some notes from Metka Skrobar for Term 4:
- The Human Form – Oct 14 and 28
- Day 1 – Material List – Oct 14 – Drawing with a life model
- The Human Form – Material List – Oct 28
- Landscape in Acrylics – Nov 11 & 25
Our Exhibition for “My Queensland” has been accepted and will be scheduled for late 2015. So with that in mind I suggested to Metka that we could incorporate our human form into a beach or coastal landscape. We can also use Queensland subjects when we have the landscape classes.
Of course we will also be having our usual Annual Show and any subject can be used in that show.
Happy painting,
Regards,
Hilary.

Coochie Art Group Art Sale
Coochie Art Group is having an Art Sale in Cleveland, with the sale starting on Wednesday, 8th October and running for at least two weeks, perhaps longer. The sale features paintings in all media and genres, framed and unframed, with works from all our favourite Coochie artists and at surprisingly good prices. Hand-painted cards and the famous Coochie Art Group Cookbook are also for sale.
The Sale is in Shop 17, Stocklands, in the Woolworths side of Middle Street, Cleveland, just inside the entrance to the shopping centre. The shop was previously Forza Menswear.

Jan Lawnikanis Materials List
Sent from my iPad
Hi Everyone,
I have attached the info from Jan. Day 1 will be with coloured pencils. Day 2,3 and 4 with watercolours. If you wish to work with either coloured pencils or watercolours on any day it is okay with Jan.
Also Jan has offered to order us a set of 3 primary colours in the MaimeriBlu range for $35.50. They the correct primaries for the CYM colour wheel system which we’ll be working with. These paints are considered top quality and are made in Italy (even W & Newton get theirs made in China now!) and the tubes are 15ml as opposed to the regular 5ml tubes by W & N. A lot of well known watercolourists prefer them too. If you are interested, bring your money in an envelope to the meeting on 15 July, and Jan will bring them to Day 2.
Regards,
Hilary.
