Going with the Flow - Fluid Art Exhibition Opening 3pm
3pm today (Sun 1 August) at the Feilding and District Art Society, 104 Manchester St, Feilding
You are invited to join us at the Feilding and District Art Society this afternoon to celebrate the opening of this beautiful fluid art (or poured art) exhibition by Rochelle MacBeth.
Rochelle began her creative journey just 3 years ago. She had heard of 'fluid art' or 'pouring art' and decided to try it out. She absolutely loved the process and has been hooked ever since!
Since her first pour she has learnt many techniques and gained a real eye for colour and composition. Of learning new techniques Rochelle say's "There has been a lot of paint wasted along the way - but if you don't make mistakes you don't learn!"
Recently Rochelle has been working on commissions and loves the feeling of pleasure she gets when a client sees their ideas come to life!
Light refreshments will be served and there will be an opportunity to meet Rochelle and discuss her work and what inspires her.
Everyone is welcome - there is no need to book and there is no charge to attend.
Following the Opening Celebration the exhibition will run 2 - 20 August.

Some Choice News!
DOC is rolling out a new tool to help figure out what to tackle first when it comes to protecting our threatened species and the things putting them at risk.
Why does this matter? As Nikki Macdonald from The Post points out, we’re a country with around 4,400 threatened species. With limited time and funding, conservation has always meant making tough calls about what gets attention first.
For the first time, DOC has put real numbers around what it would take to do everything needed to properly safeguard our unique natural environment. The new BioInvest tool shows the scale of the challenge: 310,177 actions across 28,007 sites.
Now that we can see the full picture, it brings the big question into focus: how much do we, as Kiwis, truly value protecting nature — and what are we prepared to invest to make it happen?
We hope this brings a smile!
