Rosalie Gascoigne

Went to the Rosalie Gascoigne exhibition and also saw 2 short films about her at the NGV Ian Potter Gallery at Fed Square.
She is such an inspiration.
I love her quirky sense of humour, and her sesnitive asppreciation of the landscape.

To grid or not to grid?

Trying to work out the best composition for this series of photos.
I like the idea of a grid, but it is hard to determine how to mount them

Making a Mark exhibition at the NGV

The floor talk by the curator of the Making a Mark exhibition Alisa Bunbury, was excellent. She gave us some interesting insights into the way the collection had been assembled. It was lovely to see the works again.
