Gone to a Good Home

The natural cycle of making artwork is that it will go out into the world at some stage and start a new life. It contains some of the artist's mental DNA and sometimes it is sad to part with a piece, which of course is better than being glad to ged rid of it!

 
This piece went to a good home on the weekend after The Warranwood Steiner Art Show and I am very grateful for that. It was a great show with a high clearance rate and a vibrant buzz. Beautiful afternoon tea and room for families to mingle. I love seeing children exposed to art exhibitions. They develop a vocabulary specific to art and become more competent in discussing their responses which in turn helps them to develop their own higher concepts.
