Hello from Falls Creek in the beautiful alpine country in Victoria! I'm up here for nearly three weeks as their artist-in-residence. The idea of the residency is to reinvigorate year-round cultural activity on the mountain and I get the opportunity to draw from the unique features of Victoria’s pristine alpine environment, surrounded by National Park, to reflect, research and develop creative ideas.
The spark for this exhibition came from a handful of conversations through the Autumn of ‘21 with us both longing for some change to our studio practices, more social connection and some much-needed adventure.
Andrea Shaw and I have an upcoming exhibition at In The Skies in Lorne. Titled 'Day Trippers' the show is a collection of en plein air works from around the Surf Coast.
At the moment it is all about finding joy in the little things. For me, that has been taking my paint brushes and paper outdoors and working en plein air!
I am very happy to share with you my first ever calendar! A Year in Bloom presented the perfect opportunity, with a birth flower and it's meaning for every month.
Join me to celebrate the launch of my latest series of artworks ‘A Year in Bloom’. Come and say hello, check out my space and view the new works. There will be original artworks, prints, tea towels and cards available for purchase. All are welcome!
I get so many questions and enquiries about framing! I know it can be quite a daunting task making the right choice to suit the print and your budget. Although I can’t offer framing to everyone (shipping glass is very problematic!) I do have some experience and advice to offer.
