Every October, there is the Derivan Open Day where a multitude of artists of every discipline you can imagine demonstrate their art work and share their knowledge. There’s a sausage sizzle and a band playing, door prizes and factory tours. Admission is free.
This year its on the 15th October (not long now!) I will be teaching a workshop of decorated papers – “Pushing your Credit Card to the Max”.
The workshop will be free (as are all the Open Day workshops). Everything will be provided except for a few simple tools that you probably already own.
There will be lots of gorgeous colours of acrylic paint to play around in and get really messy.
You may have made credit card papers before. If not, there is a video of my workshop/demonstration from 2010 here. We’ll do those again – just as a warm-up.
This workshop will go on from simple credit card papers to some new exciting techniques not offered before. Places are very limited and numbers will be small so I can give students lots of attention.
You will have to get in early to secure a place.
Reservations will be on the Derivan website very soon.



Wendy, you never cease to amaze me. Wish I could head down under!
