Another year is fast disappearing, and with that comes much reflection on the year that was, as far as my art practice goes. I’ve just done the count and 2024 has been both busy and full, with my work appearing in 34 art shows. I’m looking forward to more of the same in 2025!
This year, however, I decided to take a break from my annual end-of-year Open Studio weekend, and instead will be taking part in a couple of markets, where a large range of gifts for Christmas (and beyond) will be available. Something new for me is the tote bag (pictured above), with one of my waratah paintings on it. These will be available at both events.
The first market, at The Cottage in Brooklyn, is on Sunday 1 December and I’ll be sharing a table with friend and glass artist Karina Vallins. The following weekend I’ll be setting up again with Karina, as well as our friend and ceramic artist Romanda Newman, with a pop-up store at Gallery 161 in Cromer. Please come and say hello!
Currently showing is the Northern Beaches Gallery’s Summer Art Prize, and then the final show for me for the year will be the Christmas Exhibition and Sale at Wallarobba, with the Hornsby Art Society.
