A week of thanks to you

I am a bit overwhelmed by the last 10 days. Overwhelmed but not disempowered; quite the opposite!
The Naked Beast opening followed by the Open Studios weekend has given me creative fuel for at least a year...just have to compartmentalise and prioritise as I am firing on all six proverbial pistons at the minute.
In an attempt to do so, I am posting one specific note of gratitude each evening and one image...should be able to manage that!


Thanks to my lovely friend Jenny Farkas. She commissioned me to create a piece for the toilet in her business premises last year. ZINNIA is located at 3/2 Morris Road, Upwey 3158.
Inspired by the name, Zinnia being a butterfly attracting flower, my love affair with creating silk butterflies dawned and it has blossosmed since then (excuse the pun, I couldn't resist it!) Up, up and Away......






The Opening Night


Naked Beast: where the Wild Things are
had a great opening night






.....entertained by the Wandering Minstrals

...dazzled by stunning artwork


and chatting with procurers

On display at Burrinja, 351 Glenfern Rd, Upwey 3158 until Sunday 26th June.



And if you feel inclined, you could always vote for your favourite!

Dandenong Ranges Open Studios

It's here....it's arrived and it's great. The new Open Studios website. It has 'gone live' today. Many thanks to everyone involved, I think it cleans us all up rather nicely!  Have a play with the icons and find the artists you'd like to visit at the end of May.
