22.01.2022 Hot water bottle covers are small and simply shaped. They provide the perfect 'canvas' for endless variety of textile artistry.

16.01.2022 When I saw the 2019 documentary [The Final Quarter] about Adam’s final season of AFL football my guts were churning as I relived Adam’s experiences with relent...less racism on and off the field. As I watched, memories of my own experiences were stirred up and I knew I wanted to reach out and reconnect with Adam. We share some similar stories and experiencesof disconnection from culture, language and country, and the constant pressures of being an Aboriginal man in this country. https://www.artforum.com//vincent-namatjira-becomes-first-

14.01.2022 Get in touch if you'd like to visit the studio. With the open studios event for November cancelled, I'm taking visitors by appointment. It's kind of slow and personal (and covid-safe) and I don't mind it at all.

09.01.2022 Open in Yarragon this weekend

09.01.2022 Nerida. A 30min sitting, gestural drawing at a moment in time. Then re-worked with paint, graphite and general creative madness!! Nerida has moved on - she became a traditional Indian dancer - the Bharatanatyam in Melbourne. Stockyard Gallery has many creatives working from home. Our committee has put an article in our local paper - The Mirror We are ready for action when the time is right. Meanwhile check out Anne Miller’s oyster shell paintings and see the great colour Kerry Strauss has painted onto her studio walls in Foster!! All on Instagram. The South Gippsland Shire Arts Newsletter is a must see - thanks Mary Sullivan our Arts Officer Any volunteers who would like to share their creative story can contact the Shire or message us and we will help Regards to all - will keep you updated

08.01.2022 Open this weekend

06.01.2022 We are very sorry to say we have decided to cancel our event. A few artists will go ahead and open their studios independently on the weekend of November 14 & 1...5. This won’t be part of an event, and there won’t be any ticketing or entry charges. You just come and visit. We suggest you contact artists directly using the details on our site (link in bio). You will be able to find out if a particular studio will be open, or even make a ‘by appointment visit’ for another time when you might be visiting the area. Once again our sincere apologies for cancelling the event and we hope to be back in March 2021.
