Happenings in 2025
The year started with two works winging their way to the Brunswick Street Gallery for the Small Works Art Prize 2025 in January: Marigold & Pomegranate, Oil on linen 25 x 20 cm and Silver Princess Baroque, Oil on linen, 20 x 30 cm. These have since sold.
Art Lovers Australia (ALA) approached me to join their stable of artists so you can find my work there, and on Bluethumb too.
I leant into making stained glass after many years abstinence and started doing more eco-printing on tea towels - these items are for sale in shops around Nannup and will eventually appear in my online shop.
Enjoyed a very successful Blackwood River Arts Trail with a large number of sales, despite lower than usual numbers.
Part of group exhibition ALA’s Melbourne Gallery in Collingwood from 22 August - 3 October: Emerging Voices, opening event Friday 22 August. Head on over Wed to Sun if you’re Melbourne and check out 11 artists work.
Selected as finalist in Lethbridge Small Scale Art Award for the second year running - opening night Saturday 30 August, with exhibition in Paddington running until Sept 13.
I will be spending September in Japan getting inspired! Then it is back to the studio to put in the hours preparing for an exhibition starting mid March next year with Cassi-Jo Davis in Margaret River, and of course BRAT2026 in March/April
