I would like to extend a warm invitation to the opening of Japanese Story, a group exhibition, curated by Angela D'Elia, I am showing in at Goulburn Regional Art Gallery from 8th to 22nd December 2010.

In the studio

I'll be focused on painting for a while, the March deadline for my next solo show doesn't seem so far away. But I'll continue to post updates of exhibition openings as they come along.

Happy Painting!

Taking a break

I've decided to take a break from blogging for a while. This blog started with my residency at the Brisbane Botanic Gardens Mt.Coot-tha last year. As a way of recording my observations and to publish a book about the experience. This year I recorded site visits in Redlands City as part of research for my exhibition 'Plant-Life' at Redland Art Gallery. I have enjoyed very much the interaction with readers and comments in response to posts. Thank you all for taking time to visit and leaving your thoughts, it's been wonderful to hear from you.

In the meantime, if you'd like to stay in touch I have a mailing list on my website, with newsletters and exhibition invitations sent out a few times each year.

Thank you,
Nicola.

Small new works

While in Sydney a few months ago I visited Parkers Art Supplies (Oh my, what a treasure trove!) and bought, amongst other things, some beautiful dove-tailed timber panels for painting. Last week I had some time to paint a few small works for entry into the Linden Postcard Show, held each year in St.Kilda, Victoria. All works in the show are 30 x 30cm or smaller. These panels are 20 x 15cm, a scale I find that has it's own challenges.
