I had a wonderful birthday and I was very spoilt. Thank you ladies for my birthday wishes.
I recently participated in a workshop run by True Blue Decorative Artists. The lovely teacher was Karen Brouwer who taught a Zhostovo Rooster design. Karen did a few workshops with one of the Zhostovo masters (Slava Letkov) a few years ago and is very talented when teaching Zhostovo style.
I thoroughly enjoyed this workshop and thought I'd have a go using the same technique but with oils. I designed this simple rose piece and painted it using Chroma, Archival Oils. If you like this piece, I'm happy to share my design with you.
I'm off to Craft Fest this Friday. I'll be helping to man the stall of the Giant Paint by Numbers Canvas for Humour Foundation for the "Clown Doctors".
Pop on by, pick up a paint brush and say Hello. I'd love to meet some bloggers.

Really enjoyed looking at the artist site where there are lots of different styles art. Your cockrel is awesome, love the colours of the back feathers so much!
Thank you so much Rosa for your kind words about my mum.

Hi Anna,
Hope the Craft Fest was a succes?! I wanted to come to Ashburton the first weekend of October but I just can't find the time for anything at the moment. Things will be more relaxed from next year on luckily!
I never heard of the Community Garden in St Kilda by the way. What is that if I may ask?
Groetjes :) Monique
