Creek Drawing #17

Retail Price: POA
Dimensions: 109 x233 cm (H x W)

Exhibition: The New Quilt 2021 (juror invitational)

Future Tense

Statement: The bushfire season is longer and more intense. The future looks grim unless governments accept that climate change is real and act now.
Retail Price: POA

Exhibitions: Golden Textures 2021

Down the Down the Creek: twenty eight sketches

Like the rhythm of walking, each new sketch developed its own tempo… re-drawing the familiar leads to new discoveries and interpretations.
