beautiful Weekend Workshop - Brisbane

Paint Mojo with Tracy Verdugo!

I have declared this year is all about learning new art techniques, as much as I can.. so going to Tracy's workshop was part of that ... I wanted to see in person what all this dripping and colour and creatures was all about!!!  Wow, what FUN, it was hands down the best workshop I have been to so far... I have learned along the way that I am a kinaesthetic learner, I need to DO ... not just sit and listen to someone 'talk' about doing... in fact.. those kinds of classes make me want to hit my head on the desk really hard.

I was so thrilled to be painting and plain happy to be there, that grin was plastered to my face for much of the weekend... apart from when I was freaking out about covering up half of the canvas with white paint!

I was lucky enough to have several friends also booked in to do this workshop, 
that made it ever so much more special for me.

Tracy's beautiful canvas... the one on the right is the almost finished piece.

my collage/colourful board headed towards Mr and Mrs Chicken.. while Tracy's became a very gorgeous cat!

So, that's a bit of a snap shot of the weekend, having two days together was really great, and allowed for us to work on 2-3 pieces, I loved it very much, and learned a bit more about .. letting go, surprises within a painting, colour, and freedom and joy to play with a whole new technique. YUMM.


bye for now,
love Denise xo
