The first lot for the Art 4 Heart auction (raising money for the QLD Premier’s Flood Relief Appeal), wrapped up over the weekend. And I am astounded, and also very proud to pass on the news that together we raised $2,440!

So far…

Now it’s time for Lot Number 2. Even more artists (including Sarah McNeil, one of my all time favourites), even more lovely art, and another chance to nab yourself something wonderful for your walls this new year, all whilst helping those in need.

Go have a peepsee: Art 4 Heart.

In the wake of the terrible floods in Queensland, a bunch of artists have pulled together and donated artworks to help. We’ve created an art auction to raise some much needed funds for the QLD Premier’s Disaster Relief Appeal. Please go and have a look-see, there is some amazing work up for Auction and it’s for a really good cause. Starts TODAY!

All final bids are paid directly to the official Disaster Relief Appeal, and your receipt of donation is what we use as proof of purchase. So not only are you doing a great deed by donating to help so many people in desperate need, but you also get some amazing art to keep for yourself! Win win, hey?

My donation is a set of 2 prints featuring native birds from my region.

Bidding starts Tuesday 18th January 10:00am – and closes at 5pm on 22nd January. The second auction follows. All items have a starting bid price much lower than normal retail price too, just a little extra incentive.

A huge thank-you to everyone who came along to the market on the weekend. I don’t normally get to see people see my work, so that, and being able to say hello and have a chat with everyone, was just the most happy-making thing. I had a really really great time!

I am currently working to restock my online shop, and updating my wholesale catalogue. Please feel free to send me an email if there’s anything particular you would like.

The Finders Keepers Market is an amazing event which brings together emerging and contemporary independent artists and designers of original and high creative standards across 80 stalls. And I am thrilled that I’m going to be part of it!

I will be sharing one big art-tastic stall with fellow artists Emma of Benconservato and Penny of Pocket Carnival. Come say “hi” if you can make it. We will be next to the Frankie stall, opposite the bar.

Friday 7th May from 6pm – 10pm
Saturday 8th May from 10am – 6pm
CarriageWorks – 245 Wilson Street, Eveleigh*, Sydney, NSW, Australia
