Turkish Festival at Victoria Market

 The Turkish community of Melbourne was out on the weekend promoting Turkish culture at the Victoria Market.
This lady was showing passers by the art of Ebru ... painting beautiful designs using oil on water, and then lifting the design off in one deft movement



 And there was a terrific band


A stall selling food from Cyprus......

 And lovely to see  a rather small version of the Istanbul Bazaar in our very own market, replete with posters of Attaturk,,,,,, This poster featured on many stalls.

Papermade

Went to see this exhibition at Australian Galleries in Collingwood at the weekend.  A huge number of artists and a great array of works on paper. Some favourites were Thorton Walker's portraits, and of course Graeme Drendel's charming images.


My new work will be on display on March 27th

Pleased to have been invited to exhibit some of my works here with the Northern Artists Group. I have been busy in the studio brushing up on floral themes
