My Next Exhibition

On 22nd April 2009 my first exhibition at Kingfisher Gallery in West Perth will be opened by Brendon Darby. This show entitled 47°N/ 20°S  -  Questembert /Yarri  will run until the 17th of May and showcases works from recent painting trips to two places close to my heart, Brittany and the Pilbara.  As the title suggests this exhibition covers a lot of ground. It will include small watercolours of French village life and large oils of extraordinary rock outcrops on Yarrie Station in the  Pilbara.

Painting in Provence and Paris

I've been asked to lead a wonderful art tour to Provence in September. We will be travelling with Rhea Barnard, a very experienced tour escort from Travel Associates in Perth.

If you are interested in joining a small party of painters and non painters for a well organised but leisurely painting experience based in a beautifully 18th Century villa in the south of France click here for further details.

Back to Yarrie

I will be taking a small group to paint at Yarrie Station again in July. This enormous cattle station south east of Port Headland has a wide range of subjects, including many types of landform, station buildings and the De Grey River. The owners, Lang and Ann Coppin, are very supportive, and have given us permission to stay at Nimingarra again, an abandoned homestead.There is so much to do and we had a great time last year, and got a lot of work done.

I think a group of ten would be max. The provisional dates are 8th to the 19th of July, using our own transport and camping. It may also be possible to fly to Port Hedland and share expenses with other artists travelling from there for those who don't want to drive up from Perth.

Contact me asap if you are interested, as the group seems to be coming together quite quickly.
