suburban fireworks





above you might be able to just see the annual procession through Ashfield Park towards prime positioning for firework viewing - the distant red lights in top pic. Next year on this busy corner we will have views above a common and invading, like a noxious weed, 24/7 fast food outlet! Our quiet innerwest suburb will never be the same. Depressing that yet again $-making wins over community needs (7000 people signed against this development).

playful conclusions



My good friend Gail popped round to the gallery for some playtime.

A walk along the Hawthorne Canal end of the GreenWay is a good way for time out from city life for me. This Sunday there is an open day at Art Est Gallery and Art School 2-5pm found through the mozaic tunnel at Lords Rd.

afterwards










"Well, what happens 
now to all the work" you may ask....  The current plan is all pieces will be stored for a while and then allowed out at the next GreenWay Festival or similar event. Meanwhile if there is an invitation to visit outside the area where works can be seen again I will be happy to install it and the project can continue to grow.

clustering connections before closing









there are so many pieces that its easy to see new layers and arrangements that respond or speak to one another.. smaller stories of interest within a bigger picture

more pink along the green









here are exquisitely articulated a part 1 and 2 ...as double-sided spinning swingtags are the preferred way!








It's wonderful to see the range of freedom expressed in our works when we let go notions of perfection and simply enjoy the process of making. And all ranges of skill are represented from the littlest reaching their first year to someone in their 6th decade. Elements of the GreenWay or sheer play are hanging and conversing with one another. 


Hey Sue, I like yours and mine meeting here.
