21.01.2022 It’s so great to be a part of the Virtual Ecofest for the @gladstoneregionalcouncil and of course to be able to collaborate with Ruby Lawler again. Take pART Act II is a strategic community cultural Initiative of the Gladstone Regional Council supported but it’s Regional Arts Development Fund (RADF). Regional Arts Development Fund is a Queensland Government and Gladstone Regional Council partnership to support local arts and culture in regional Queensland
14.01.2022 Chiminea lit, pot of peppermint tea & our toddler sons running around in the backyard. The second stage of my interview with Petra was filled with the things we love. #ArtsQld #toughandtenderbeauty #australianartist #regionalartist #drawing #qldartist #qldart
11.01.2022 One of the great things about the #toughandtenderbeauty residency has been the opportunity to meet new artists. I’ve been particularly interested in @karenmandersen work and words and today as I was thinking about her approach to her pieces, I felt like just getting some paint on paper. I’ve been flat out lately- consequently conking out a bit! Uncertainty hovering over my daily moves, clouding and thunder clapping my energy. This work spells that out a bit. #ArtsQld #toughandtenderbeauty #australianartist #regionalartist #abstractart #qldartist #qldart
07.01.2022 We had a great chat in our zoom meeting yesterday for the #toughandtenderbeauty #artistinresidency about marketing and branding. And for me it’s becoming more and more apparent that my roles as both Visual and Community Artist sit comfortably- collaborating and complimenting each other under the one umbrella. So from here on EVERYTHING I do will be shared with you all @acountryartspractice Please head on over and follow me there. I’m REALLY busy at the moment, so there will be plenty to see!

07.01.2022 ‘Petra’ Pastel and pencil on Arches paper. 57 x 75cm. May 2020. I hugged someone for the first time in months that wasn’t my husband or our son. And it was Petra. I broke the rules, but then so does Petra. And I really needed a hug. During the second stage of my interview with Petra, she talked about her life after returning to Australia, buying a home with her husband. Study, work and their two children coming into the world. Petra is dedicated to making a difference, bot...h within her personal life and out in the community. She is philosophical and ethical. Petra was homesick for ten years, but immersed herself in fishing, the beach exploring the outdoors and acquainting herself with the locals. Culturally, Petra noted, embraced and adapted to certain circumstances but still observes how we are all so different. She fills my cup with new ways to look at things a perspective that is both refreshing and honest. #ArtsQld #toughandtenderbeauty #australianartist #regionalartist #drawing #qldartist #qldart #abstractart See more
