AN INVITATION

Dear friends

It was exciting and very affirming to see so many friends at the exhibitions in which I displayed my work last year.
I am not planning another exhibition at Artastic until 2008, but I am writing to let you know that some of us at Victorian Artists Society are holding a third Creations at the Cato exhibition this year. The dates are from Thursday October 25th to Thursday October, 31st, 2007. Details of the hours of opening can be found on the enclosed brochure.
At this year’s exhibition there will be a few more participants than previously, providing a vibrant showing of work accomplished in class. The Kate Price Duo will again play live jazz at the official opening from 2.00 to 4.00 on Saturday afternoon, 27th October. Refreshments will be creatively presented by the artists themselves ! We will again have mounted works at much reduced prices.
I am trying to “fly solo.” Now an ex-student of Nell Frysteen’s class, I am still invited to exhibit with the class. I am continuing to draw and paint each Tuesday morning at the Victoria Market with a group of friends, most of whom also meet each fortnight for coffee at Enoteca, North Carlton, where we encourage one another and share our recent work for comment.
Among my paintings completed this year are Tuscan scenes, seascapes of Lorne and Strahan, a Fitzroy terrace, some central Tasmanian landscapes and a series of paintings of fruit at the Victoria Market.
I have completed commissions from the two Cellini shops at Carlton and Clifton Hill and from the Curds and Whey Delicatessen at Victoria Market.
