What a fabulous weekend it has been! There are now FOUR new trainers in Victoria. It has been such a privilege to work with four amazingly talented women, who of whom is very young, but an awesome artist as well. Pictured are our new trainers with all of the work completed over the weekend. We have Briah Baker from Bacchus Marsh, Lyn Montel from Geelong, Sonya Else from Rochester and Lee Howard from Melbourne. Sonya's other work can be seen at SoulHeartArt on Facebook.Her work has also been featured previously on this blog.Lyn has her work at StarDust Fibre Creations on Facebook and also at StarDust Intuitive Art on Facebook. Congratulations and welcome to Powertex and the Australian Powertex Team. On Sunday, I will be at GasWorks Art Park at Albert Park, where I will be holding a Standing Sculpture workshop. This one is full, but there is another scheduled for October. That one is also filling, so let me know if you are interested. Then on Monday, another two people will be completing all four levels of the Certified Powertex Trainer course that week. I do love the workshop/teaching side of Powertex! It is wonderful seeing everyone completing such beautiful work and growing in their confidence in using the products. Then it will be time to get stuck into some work of my own!!

 I have had such a lovely day today, working with Margaret McHardy, one of our Melbourne based Powertex Trainers. Marg completed Level Three today and will be back in two weeks to complete Level Four.
She is pictured with her beautiful piece, completed with fibres, Powertex (of course!), StoneARt, pigments, sand and Bister, to create the crackle effect. Congratulations Margaret. On Friday, I am off to Daylesford to train our four new Certified Powertex Trainers, who are going to complete their Level One and Two. So excited, it should be lots of fun!! Photos next week and keep an eye the websiter for our new trainers from Melbourne, Geelong, Rochester and Bacchus Marsh.  Hi everyone, hope all of my fellow Victorians are managing to keep warm with this cold snap we are having at the moment. I am finally over this horrible flu, that put me out of action for a few weeks. Finally feeling like getting back down to the studio, I had a lovely 'play day' on Friday, doing a little bit of felting, with one of my friends. Scarves were produced and lots of fun had!! Some changes to the training program. Most people are aware that I usually only do the Certified Powertex Trainer Course from the home studio. I will be travelling to Daylesford and doing Level One and Two there, on Saturday, 23rd and Sunday, 24th of August, at the Daylesford Neighbourhood Centre. So for those people north of Melbourne, it is a fabulous opportunity to do the course and not have to travel to Gippsland. Places are still available. Now that I am "flu-free" and not at risk of passing it on to anyone, I am available for workshops again on Wednesdays and Fridays. Arty Parties are still happening. Bring along four of your friends to the Churchill studio and get your workshop for FREE. This applies to any of the workshops that I do, including the new ones. And what are the new ones? I will be taking the following new workshops:

Autho I am Rhonda Hunt, from Faeries with Attitude, a Gippsland based artist, who dabbles in all sorts of things. Ideas, thoughts, silly musings at midnight, assorted bits of inspirational stuff, and things to get your creativity going. I have tried just about every craft known, so my interests are quite eclectic. Hopefully, you will find something here to interest you. Archives
