 "SINGAPORE, AMSTERDAM & SWITZERLAND" |
I am heading off for the very first time over
seas...
I am going to Switzerland with Christian, we have
stop overs in Singapore & Amsterdam...
This is still a scary thought for me, with less
then 24 hrs until we depart, it really hasn't hit
me, I guess it will with our 4am start tomorrow
to fly out from the Gold Coast airport to Sydney
where we will depart for singapore around 4pm
tomorrow afternoon....
I hope to grow from this experiance, new people
with new experiances and cultures that are
different to me & mine....
I will be away from the 28th June until the 13th
August 2008, we land in Cairns & will drive back
to stuarts Point in about 2 wks to a month, not
too sure on that just yet....

 "THE YARRAHAPINNI FESTIVAL 29TH - 30TH AUGUST '08" |
Stuarts Point is hosting this festival wich will
see the opening night at the local town hall with
an Arts and Crafts exhibition from local artists..
I have entered items (paintings & driftwood) and
donated a piece for the fund raising raffle.
Again I am disapointed because I won't be here
for the festival but we donated our time for the
committee and have aided them in some small way,
the exhibition will run the entire week end...

 "MACLEAY VALLEY COMMUNITY ART GALLERY PART 2" |
We sold at the Gallery, I sold 'Rock Holes' and
Christian sold 'The Lakes', we are both very
pleased...
I have also handed in three more paintings for
NAIDOC week at the Gallery, how many will hang
will depend on how many exhibitors there will
be?...
I am slightly disapointed that I won't be able to
see them hanging among the other Aboriginal
Artists but to be there is a privilage, NAIDOC
week exhibition runs from the 6th to the 13th
July '08...

| 'CRESCENT HEAD ART EXHIBITION' |
This week end just gone, We entered
several paintings in the Crescent Head Art
exhibition 2008, keep in mind this is new ground
for me as in
the past I have only displayed my art on my own
walls or in the Uralla show, so fused with a
little adrenalin & confusion I threw caution to
the wind & took the plunge (mind you not a lot of
convincing was needed). We arrived early & looked
around & found out where we had been placed,
Christian noticed one of his driftwood hanging
the wrong way, quickly he asked if it could be
hung properly, he was able to and within minutes
he sold it, incredible.
Most of the evening was socializing, speaking to
fellow artists and enjoying the atmosphere, it
was great.
We arrived Sunday afternoon to pick up the
remaining art works when we discovered I had sold
one of my paintings and Christian had sold
another driftwood and to our surprise both were
bought
by the Kempsey Mayor Betty Green, amazing really.
I was just pleased I had sold another
painting but this time via an exhibition & not
ebay or the Stuart Point Bowling Club Markets,
granted I'm not complaining but there is a little
more satisfaction this way, to date I have sold
ten of my art works, I now have two of them
internationally, not bad for someone who has only
been painting seriously for the past eighteen
months.
So again I must thank everyone who has bought one
of my art & to Christian for his inspiration,
THANK YOU...
Check out the pictures in the 'SOLD' photo
album......
