Dore will be conducting a 14 day fully guided jewellery tour of Morocco in conjunction with our very good friends Rita Lazauskas and Bruce Derrick who live in Morocco and run Amazigh Cultural Tours.

Spring Enameling Classes

Hi everyone,
with October almost just around the corner I am planning our spring enameling classes.
I know this is very early notice, but I am going overseas for 5 weeks and the classes basically start straight away after my return. I am offering a Monday night class 6-9pm starting on the 14th of October and a Thursday morning 9.30 - 12.30 class starting on the 10th of October. Both classes are running for 10 weeks and are open to beginners and advanced participants.
Beginners will learn basic goldsmithing skills, experiment with enamel and make a ring or pendant with cloisonne enamel.
Advanced participants will further their goldsmithing skills, experiment with new enamel techniques and learn to make a champleve ring or pendant.
And for those of you who have already taken part in 3 courses, we will improve our soldering skills by making a silver chain. And we will enamel on more 3 dimensional forms that will be domed and hammered beforehand. Maybe even get away from the circle!
Classes are strictly limited to 5 participants  and a $150 deposit will secure your place.

Please email us on the email link to express your interest and receive the enrollment form.

SITE/sight INSIGHT Drawing workshop with RITA LAZAUSKAS

We are thrilled to introduce our friend Rita Lazauskas to you through her weekend drawing workshop being held at oneofftwo.

Artist/curator Rita Lazauskas has over twenty years experience working in public galleries in the development and presentation of exhibitions, public programs, workshops and guided tours.
A practicing artist since 1986, Rita works predominantly in drawing and painting. She has been a finalist in all the major drawing awards in Australia including the Dobell, Robert Jack, Dominique Segan, Hutchin, Swan Hill, Hazelhurst and Jacaranda. Awards include the 2011 Arts Wodonga Hume Award and 2004 Blackfriars Drawing Acquisitive.


ARTIST’S STATEMENT


Working from observation my practice includes a commitment to a daily drawing project, ongoing since 2003. When traveling the drawings record the landscape and architecture, most recently in Morocco. But more often than not, they are based on the objects on hand at home, reflecting on the complexities of life from a safe and defended position.

A bevy of old toys and junk, including iconic symbols of western culture such as the ‘Barbie’ doll, are in the jumble of debris and objects on the desktop. Viewed from above, the discarded toys, each with their own attributes and imperfections, become metaphor for the human condition. They act out scenarios - relationships are forged and narratives abound.

Rita Lazauskas


Please have a look at Rita's unique drawings on her website:

For those of you outside of East Gippsland, there is a range of accommodation right in Nungurner and nearby surrounds. We are happy to help with suggestions.

We are hoping to make this a great weekend, please email us for more info and/or bookings.

regards,
Dore & Marcus
