There are two other exhibitions I currently have work showing in that will be having their final day this Sunday, 13 September. They are:

LIQUID LIFE, Shorethyme Restaurant & Gallery

This joint exhibition with my cousin and Central Coast artist, Tracey Scheitel has been inspired by the theme of water – Liquid Life – in our daily lives and all around us and includes watercolours, acrylics, pencil drawings, linocuts and mixed media.

A BRUSH WITH JAPAN, Gosford Regional Gallery, 36 Webb Street, East Gosford
This exhibition by members of the Australian Society of Miniature Art will also be having its last day this Sunday, 13 September 2015. I have one of my watercolours showing and the exhibition showcases work in a broad range of media inspired by the Gosford Edogawa Commemorative Garden which is located adjacent to the gallery. This Japanese garden is always worth visiting at any time of the year and there is also a lovely cafe at the complex. http://www.gosfordregionalgallery.com

‘Still Emerging’ Group Exhibition, 9 – 13 September 2015

STILL EMERGING is the 2015 Annual Intergenerational Art Exhibition put on by the Inner West Women’s Shed of which I am a member. The inaugural exhibition last year was a great success and I’m sure this year will be too with its diverse range of interesting work by mainly local artists. Today I delivered 5 of my artworks (some watercolours and a linocut print) to the gallery in readiness for the opening night from 6 – 8pm this Wednesday, 9 September 2015. I also took along 2 entries for my sister Janice Neal, who lives in Canberra, and is entering 2 of her fascinating 3-D abstract crochet sculptures in the exhibition this year. We are hoping to get as many people along as possible for the opening this Wednesday night so please drop in if you can for a drink and to meet the artists. The exhibition will run every day from Wednesday 9 September till, and including, Sunday 13 September, and the gallery hours are 11am – 5pm.
