WINE & WATERCOLOUR EVENINGS
Mount Ruapehu on one of the glorious days after a southerly has passed through. This is one of the subjects for the July beginner water colour events at Artspace Gallery.
Get a group of workmates or friends together and end your working day on a creative high, learning the joys of watercolour painting with a glass of wine (or two) for inspiration. During the fun filled evening, you'll be guided through painting your own watercolour led by a master teacher in an awesome classroom overlooking the sea. We'll cover the different techniques of watercolours such as painting 'wet in wet', colour mixing and brush control. No previous art experience is required and there's no need to worry about drawing as painting outlines will already be prepared for you so that we can focus on the joys of watercolour painting. These workshops are suitable for both beginners and more experienced watercolour artists who would like to fine tune their skills and style.
Each class is two hours and the cost of $50 which includes all materials. Just turn up empty and leave two hours later with your completed watercolour painting to be proud of and a smile of creative satisfaction on your dial.

Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?
The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.
This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
