News from the inexhaustible Julia

Julia and one of her quirky cows, Miss Moola La, are working with Breast Cancer Awareness and Mind Wales to raise one million and £1. More info here. 

Julia says:

 "Looks like it is taking off, just heard that one of the consultants from the hospital will be coming to the launch as well as Kirsty Williams, shame it is so far for you guys to come.
"Did I tell you that I am now signed up with Buckingham Fine Art Publishers? They will promote my work as limited editions, but I get to keep copyright and originals. If it takes off looks like I will have to buy a posh frock for the Dorchester." 

Read all about it on Julia's website.

Picturemakers meeting and Group crit

At the November meeting we developed our programme of exhibitions for 2012 and 2013 (for details, click "Exhibitions" tab above). Reports were given by Steph and Shelley on the progress of the Ceredigion Art Trail, which we are seeking to become involved in.

We concluded with a brief group criticism of recent works, some of which are shown below.
