NEWS from Lisa: Rocks and Clay
A visit to Central Australia in July was a wonderful way to take a short break from Winter with the family, be inspired by amazing landscapes and indigenous artists while also hiking around Uluru, Kata Tjuta and King’s Canyon.
Back in the studio this month it’s been full-speed ahead to prepare for our annual Midjuburi Precinct Creative Trail, organised by the Innerwest Council. We look forward to opening the studio doors for a whole weekend on August 12th and 13th to share the work of 12 local artists and works in progress including painting and ceramic demonstrations. Please also save the date for our exhibition opening on Friday 11th 5-8pm. Very many thanks to Deb Wilkes and all the other participating artists for their help in organising this event.
Come along to see the work of the Bakehouse Studio Artists
Kings Canyon, Central Australia
This month I’ll have my head down and my hands full, focussing on some large scale projects for a few exhibitions which all open in October. You can come and see my work in progress as part of the Midjuburi Creative Trail.
