20 Betty Mitlan raku fired ceramics Betty has worked with clay for over 35 years and worked exclusively in raku for the past 8 years. Raku fired ceramics originated in Japan in the 16th century to make tea bowls for tea ceremonies. The process differs from other ceramic firings in that pieces are pulled from the kiln at 1000 degrees Celsius, glowing hot, and then cooled in a bin of combustible materials, creating unique effects no other process can achieve. Betty will be holding firing demonstrations at her studio, which is nestled in beautiful bushland, constantly inspiring and honing her creativity in this exciting medium.

Mary Newham Painter and pastels Celebrating the beautiful Yarra Valley is fundamental to Mary’s art. Particularly inspiring is the variation of light, shade, colour, atmosphere and mood created by changes in weather, time and seasons. Painting on site is inspirational and meditative, often with horses, cattle or alpacas quietly observing her. When travelling Mary employs watercolours, gathering a diversity of ideas to re-work in oils in her studio. Mary’s lifelong interest in horses is also reflected in her work. While directly observing individual dressage horses and riders she quickly and expressively records their powerful and graceful movements using charcoal, pastel and ink washes.
