I had a wonderful time and hope to hold many more classes at home.
I must thank my wonderful husband, I couldn't have done it without him. He made the fabulous tables, four and a half metres long in total, working until all hours Friday night to get them just right. He also did much of the cooking, setting up the meals and washing all of the dishes. Thanks Darling.
This is the group.
The lovely Samm, what a treasure she is. Always smiling and very talented.
Two very talented ladies who I've bumped into at previous workshops Carolyn and Janette, who's just started her own blog, it's well worth a visit.
The lovely Rita who attended one of my previous workshops.
You may know Jo already, she has a wonderful blog. Jo very kindly passed on the details of my workshop to her friends, so I'll be organizing another one in early January as this one filled up very quickly.
Nicky's also a regular, she's taken quite a few of my workshops and is such a lovely thoughtful lady.
Sisters, Jacky and Lee, what a lovely pair, Jacky has been to my workshops before but this was Lee's first ever workshop, she loved the way we just splashed paint around and could let yourself be really free.
This was also Christina's first time in one of my classes. Christina has her own online store with lots of wonderful glimmer mist paints, that create wonderful effects on the papers.
Anne is also one of my regulars, she's very talented and loves to experiment with lots of different techniques and materials.
Finally we Aussies had a lovely smiling moon tonight. Jupiter and Venus were lined up very close above the moon creating a wonderful smiling face in the night sky. The advantage of living in the Southern hemisphere is, we see it the right way up, even though we're 'down under'.

Hi Ro,
Looks like everyone had a great time! Such a treat to look at what everyone was making and they look thrilled. I love the look of your workshop- so cool. Your husband is wonderful to make the tables and do so much to help everything run smoothly.

Hi Ro...so great to be a part of your very first class, at home. And what a success it was :)
Loved the whole day.

Hey, we saw the same sky. Pretty cool.
Looks like you had a great class, Ro. Congrats!!
Hi Ro,
the workshop looked fabulous, I visited Jan today and she showed me all of her wonderful creations done in the class:)
Hi Ro,
From the pictures I can almost feel the atmosphere in this group, it looks soo good! And you and the ladies did a wonderful job, again I have added some blogs to my ever growing daily reads. Thank you!
hi Ro
Glad it all went so well

Ro, I wish I could attend one of your workshops. Everyone looks so engrossed. Your husband souds like a star!
Hi Ro...looks like you had a great class with great food too!
Our moon in the sky here in Colorado was a sad face unlike the happy face you had!:(
Ro - what a beautiful post - full of color and life (just like your lovely self).
Jacky told me what a wonderful time she had at your workshop and I can see from the photo's that everyone else did too. She said you were a very warm and generous teacher - and I remember that from the altered book class I did with you in May.
Lot's of good energy emanates from every photo. Your husband was such a gem too by the sounds of it!
I have it on good authority that the food was delicious (and I know both Jacky and her sister Lee are ' foodies' so they appreciate good tucker).
I hope I get to attend one of your classes soon. When is the one in January?
Take good care

What a great workshop, Ro, wonderful to see everyone having such a lovely time and producing such vibrant art work.
Many thanks for dropping by my blog and leaving your lovely comment.
Ro we had an absolutely fabulous day... you workshops are such fun! Very liberating playing with paint and colour like that!
Thanks also to your lovely husband Steve too for looking after all of us girls for the day and to both of you for making us so welcome in your lovely home.

That workshop looked like so much fun and your smily moon made me, well, smile :)
This is my first visit to your blog and I'm just mesmerized by your slide shows. LOVE the paintings with the sheep and whimsical colors. Great mosiacs and journal pages. You've packed a lot of inspiration into your blog.
Look at all those smiling faces and that smiling moon! Beautiful.
How fun! Looks like all of you had a great time!
What a great workshop ro. Looks like so much fun, beautiful journals too. Love your picture of the moon, much better than the one my hubby took. Its great to think that even the moon was smiling hey.
