Happy Times....

Last weekend [I cant believe its been a week already !!!] the mixed media gals hit the beach....

Lynne flew down from Queensland and we hired a car and took off to a friends beautiful beach house which looks out over a lake.... its a bit like a Tardis house, looks really small and unassuming from the outside but is huge, light and airy inside :)



 we shopped in Castlemaine, visited not 1 but 3 art shops and Kaisercraft in Geelong .....
 
 and then we got down to business...eating, painting, drawing and laughing........ lots of laughing :)

we made books, drew faces, painted....





 and painted a collaborative cloth........that was absolutely the best time I have had arting with friends.....so much laughter and paint flying everywhere....

We walked on the beach.......





 








 
admired the beach art....
 
 

and ate in nice coffee places....

 and went for a walk around the lake...

I am envious! The art cloth is absolutely stunning. I hope to find some arty girls to "get painty" with. Until then, I will live vicariously through you dear!
