An exciting Friday

As you know from previous posts I submitted a couple of installations of work for the Aspects Art Show 2015 in Goondiwindi. Well the good news is that one of my installations, A River of Stars, won first prize in the show. That is very exciting.


Big thank-you to the Aspects Ar Show 2015 team for doing all the volunteer work to make this exhibition possible.

Fiona, Ken and I set up the COMA 3D exhibition-display in the Maleny Library display cabinets this morning. This included small works by Ken M, Noela M, Fiona and I. I think it is a beautiful and integrated exhibition of small 3D works including artists' books in paper and metal. The COMA library exhibition-display will run for all of May.

I think that is enough excitement for Friday. Time to have a celebratory glass of red - I know its early but it is rainy and a bit chilly - and I'm sure it is 6pm somewhere!!!!

    What a thrill, B! Congratulations on your beautiful River of Stars. The exhibition looks wonderful. Lucky Maleny to have such wonderful artists in their midst. You and Fiona certainly deserve that red.
