The Art of Spring Exhibition

Spring is here!  I have just had a wonderful time in Perth seeing the spring wildflowers – magnificent.  Kings Park, the Perth botanic garden has a great focus on the big fabulous blooms of key eucalyptus.  The plantings of Eucalyptus youngiana, Eucalyptus kingsmillii and eucalyptus macrocarpa are breathtaking.  I have not seen them used to such advantage in any other setting.  Not to mention all the paper daisies and wildflower ground coverage in yellow, pink, blue and orange.  We had a focused and productive time in my 5 Steps to Painting Australian Wildflowers course - many thanks to the dedicated participants.

Here in Victoria this month I am exhibiting at the Contemporary Art Society annual exhibition in Richmond and next week head down to Korumburra in Gippsland for the opening of “The Art of Spring”.  Federation Art Gallery Sunday 2pm. Hope to see you there.
