A series of art master classes gave visitors to the Tweed an opportunity to work with prominent artists over the weekend.
The master classes were a feature of the Tweed Fusion festival, a weekend to celebrate the food and art of the Tweed region.

Keeping the community together and the community voice loud and clear is what The Echo is about. More than ever we need your help to keep this voice alive and thriving in the community.
Like all businesses we are struggling to keep food on the table of all our local and hard working journalists, artists, sales, delivery and drudges who keep the news coming out to you both in the newspaper and online. If you can spare a few dollars a week – or maybe more – we would appreciate all the support you are able to give to keep the voice of independent, local journalism alive.
That is a Slipper Orchid.
Orchids have no smell to attract bees but they attract by beauty and colour. They come in all colours except one. There are no blue orchids. A lot of money have been spent it trying to propergate a blue orchid.
It can be done by injecting blue dye into the stem.
The black background brings out the red of passion and brings out the red to the foreground. Black and red. Red and black.
All in. All done. All bets in. Turn the wheel and around and we go and see what number the ball stops on.
Fabulous creative weekend of sharing with beautiful people, fine food in an ideal setting!
