My Art Tip of the Week – Meths
What can you use to get rid of those troublesome bubbles that can appear in your Gel Mediums ?
When applying gel mediums for example Self leveling gel and sometimes you get little air bubbles all through the gel… just give them a quick spray of Meths…. and wolaaa the bubbles will disappear !
It is funny how we happily go around our business without even noticing the little things in life! Since the February Earth Quakes, I have been more aware of my surroundings… I have found for me painting some of the iconic buildings has been a really good way for me to start to heal….
Over the last few weeks I have been obsessed with painting iconic Chch buildings and have just started painting Beautiful the Victoria Street Clock Tower…. and over the years I have driven past this clock so many times, but had not really looked at all the detail until now when I have started to paint it!
These are the latest miniatures of the Victoria St Clock Tower, Christchurch

An American Indian Legend
“If anyone desires a wish to come true they must first capture a butterfly and Whisper that wish to it.
Since a butterfly can make no sound, the butterfly can not reveal the wish to anyone but the Great Spirit who hears and sees all.
In gratitude for giving the beautiful butterfly its freedom, the Great Spirit always grants the wish. So, according to legend, by making a wish and giving the butterfly its freedom, the wish will be taken to the heavens and be granted”
