Artists trying new painting materials

Bibi, Jim and Raquel from Chroma Australia visited the art centre yesterday to introduce the artists to their new range of paints. Selma Coulthard, Peter Taylor and Myra Ah Chee sat down with the Chroma mob, spent time mixing the new paints and giving them a test run and the results were rich, vibrant landscapes that everyone was happy with.
