Previous Happenings..Interviews with our national radio station Triple J and also Radio 5AA in Adelaide about art and participation in the SALA (South Australian Living Artists) Festival. Also interviewed on ABC Radio with Peter Goers.

Opening night of the SALA festival exhibition at Artistic License Gallery was great night. The Melbourne Street gallery had organised a small jazz combo to play and really set the mood for the multitude of art enthusiasts who attended. I have placed a couple of pics on the website here for you to view. More..

I have also included a preview of the works via the "Latest Exhibition" page link below. I have also been lucky enough to receive some good pre-exhibition reviews of my "Red Dust Girl" series which I have also included on the website as well. More..

Since the last Adelaide exhibition, the use of my work in the promotion of the "Rio-Havana-New York" jazz festival held in Moscow during November has generated a lot of interest in my jazz series "Jazz is Art, Art is Jazz" along with opportunities to exhibit overseas.
