Last post

I have ceased to operate the business
Artistic Journey

I would like to thank you all for your support on
our creative journey.
We have shared many happy and memorable times with you over the last ten years.
Joanne now works for HBF and I am retiring and having a tree change
I will still be creating and continuing my journey
in this wonderful mixed media medium.
I am still an Artist Educator for Golden Acrylic paints and will be running workshops
in that capacity as well as mixed media workshops and lots more adventures.
I will keep you up to date with these on my Facebook page

We have made wonderful friends on our Journey
I would like to share my new journey with you on

I hope to have the time to be more creative and develop my art.
My husband John and I have bought a beautiful block of land in Donnybrook and we plan on building a Storybook home, we will be sharing our ups and downs in this venture.
Thank you once again and if you follow Vintage Vignette or Facebook
leave a comment I would love to hear from you.
May you all have a Merry Christmas
and 
may the New Year bring you much 
Happiness and Creativity

The demonstration will also discus making and using skins to create exciting elements in your art.
It is my endeavour to answer your queries and briefly touch on the differences of the many Golden moulding pastes, gels and mediums.  The differences between heavy body and fluid colours, when to use black gesso or white.  Discuss colour mixing to get the most of your purchases.

New Website

http://jacqualinemcfarlane.wix.com/artistic-journey
I have set up a new website to share with you my Golden artist educator experience.  I am still fine tuning it to work how I want it to.  Trying to figure out how to add my Golden blog to keep all in one place.  I am afraid I am technologically challenged and it always takes me ages working out how to do it.  I hope you will have a look as I am putting on tutorials that are free and anything else I can find to do with Golden paints.

Golden Demonstration at Jacksons

Following up from my last post, a reminder that I will be demonstrating Golden Products on Saturday 10 - 12 in the morning.  Come along you will pick up loads of information, bring a notebook to write things down.
I have realised that the workshop on the 9th and 10th of March will be on the same Saturday as W.A. elections.
I have decided to change Saturday's hours to 10 am instead of 9 am to give you time to go and vote.
We will extend the Sunday finishing time to 3 pm instead of 2 pm this will give you more painting time and you will not need to rush through it.  Hoping you will join me.
