Artist In Residence, Mt Barney Lodge, Qld, Sep.5th-6th, 2009.

This Blogspot is being created to Showcase my Art.
At present I am focusing on my Basketry and Fibre work in the form of more sculptural pieces...stay tuned to see other aspects of my arts practice.

On the weekend of September 5th and 6th (and also May 10th, 2010) I will be Artist in Residence at Mt Barney Lodge, near Rathdowney. This is a part of the Open Studio Trail run by The Centre, Beaudesert Regional Gallery. Every weekend in September (and again in May next year), within a different area of the Scenic Rim region, Artists are opening up their studios for visitors to view artists at work, free of charge. Tracey and Innes Larkin from Mt. Barney Lodge kindly offered me a venue within their beautiful grounds in which to work and run workshops and I was excited when my application to The Centre was accepted into the Programme .

Why not come and visit for a day or the whole weekend (check out the Mt. Barney Lodge website) as there are a variety of accomodation options. Come and participate in a workshop or just sit and look and talk! It is a beautiful spot at the base of Mt. Barney, and great bushwalking too!We'll be campimg in the grounds...I can't wait!
