Inspiration for landscapes

I am considering to enter the next available art show to be held at:

Curtin Primary School 2nd Annual Art Show
Friday 18 May to Sunday 20 May 2012


I was fortunate enough to receive a beautiful photo from a dear friend (family) living in Norway, it was taken from a place I have visited on several occasions which inspires me to paint a Norwegian landscape. If I complete the painting in time, it might be lucky enough to be featured in the exhibition, only time will tell.

Lifeline Bookfair - this weekend

I took a visit to the Lifeline Bookfair today and came home with some great books for my little girl and finally found the books I have been unable to find in the shops and local library. Thanks to those who volunteer their time and donate books to Lifeline - a fundraising event we should all support. There were so many pre-loved books including vintage books, it appears there is still a demand for paper books and I am thankful the Lifeline Bookfair continues to operate, they are doing a magnificent job.

To find out where you can donate your books please visit: Lifeline - donate your books

"Cherish" is home.

Today was rather daunting as I returned to the exhibition to finally collect my painting "Cherish", I am pleased to say the painting was not damaged and remains in one piece. This painting will stay with me, as I have no intentions to submit this in another exhibition....it's my baby and it lives to the symbolic meaning that elephants bring luck and happiness.

In celebration of the elephants.
