Birregurra Painter's Collective News
During the school holidays we had the pleasure of a visit
from Debbie McIntyre and she had the following kind words to share;
“While on school holidays I took the opportunity to visit
Birregurra's newly formed painting group.
How lovely to find a small group quietly enjoying, exploring
& sharing their love of painting.
As founding members Sophia & Barry worked (or played!)
away, the group's 'leader' Natalie introduced me & explained the ethos of
the group. "I just wanted to paint with other people so I thought I'd
start a group to see if anyone else wanted to as well. No pressure to work in
any particular medium or way. I just wanted to be painting with others."
Barry & Sophia expressed how grateful they were that
Natalie did!
As Barry explained to me about his painting, I started to get an appreciation for his skill & love of painting. Sophia was experimenting with different textural method for the base of her latest work. Thirteen year old Clodagh was having fun using water colours & looking for inspiration. That’s when Natalie brought out her computer generated art. Wow! They were fantastic! Some were dark & moody, others light & airy. All stunning.”
(Thanks Deb)
The Birregurra Painting group meets every Thursday at the
Anglican Church hall from 11am - 2pm. BYO your painting gear. Tea & coffee
