2015 held quite a few surprises for me.  Those of you following my blog may remember I was a prize winner in the Rotary Art Spectacular and the Border Art Prize, and that I also had a chance to play piano at the State Library.  Last year I was also selected as a finalist in eight art competitions, including the Gold Coast Art Prize and the Sunshine Coast Art Prize.

In August I had an exhibition of my paintings as an artist to watch at the Lethbridge Gallery in Paddington.  I had four paintings on display, which all sold during the exhibition.

After the exhibition I was back in the studio to complete a new collection of paintings for a show coming up this February at the Lethbridge Gallery plus two commissioned works (which can be viewed on my gallery).

I saw out 2015 with a roadtrip down the east coast of Australia.  Beginning in Brisbane we went through Port Macquarie, Newcastle, Sydney, Canberra, Torquay, Sovereign Hill, the Great Ocean Road, Melbourne, Bright, Young, Port Stephens and Kempsey.  It was a wonderful holiday and a great way to end what was a magnificent year.
