Last night I was very surprised and elated to be the winner of the 2D prize at the Southern Exposure Exhibition in Cygnet. Tassal donated the $1,000 award and I am very grateful for their generosity.

The exhibition has a wonderful range of work with a strong emphasis on the local landscape which is hard to move past from a visual perspective. It was a big crowd in the hall and a wonderful friendly atmosphere. Thank you to the judges who selected my print and the committee who have worked so hard to run the event.

The Cygnet Town hall is easy to find in the centre of town and the show runs until the 21st. The exihibition is open from Thursday to Sunday each week from 10 -5 and they will also be open on Monday 8th as it is a public holiday.

    thanks kim! but it is a bed that is needed so it will be good to be able to buy one this week before my son and his partner arrive on the weekend – just in time! yay! along with finishing uni came the renovation of the house which has been sadly neglected for so many years. amazing how each little job becomes a larger one and takes 10 times as much time as you think it would… ho hum…. but hopefully there will be a little for something to add to the studio :)
