All roads lead to Mudgee...



I always enjoy leaving Sydney and hitting the road, I couldn't wait to get back to the Mudgee Region after my first time there in autumn 2010 on an artist-in-residency.



With the help of the Cudgegong Gallery Team – the set up was smooth and without incident! All artworks arrived in time with no breakages. Cudgegong Gallery is a beautiful heritage building with pristine white washed walls and light floor boards –such a bright and airy space! What a wonderful blank canvas to work with!

Mudgee Guardian popped in to the gallery for a quick interview and a random photoshoot in front of numerous historic buildings in Gulgong. We also got a plug on ABC radio on Wednesday 30 August. Look out for future blogs featuring media and links to interviews.

John, Jayne, Brooke & Sue were amazing during the install – so helpful! I appreciate all of the support and favours granted! I couldn’t have done it without all of your dedication.

I would also like to thank John’s sister Margaret for generously allowing me to stay at her amazing stone farm house halfway between Gulgong and Mudgee – gorgeous views, clean air and quiet was a superb way to wind down after a day of installing.



Unpacking the artworks is just like unwrapping xmas presents! So exciting…


Hot off the press - the Goldenink duo sent us a wonderful collection of new jewellery designs, small objects and vessels.
