Annie Trevillian has been a practising artist since 1983 and this exhibition is a celebration of that printing life. The exhibition is full of life and colour and brings a happy energy to the gallery space.<br /><br />Annie will join Monique Van Nieuwland as Artists in Residence from 9th June to 19th July.<br /><br />Both Annie ans Monique will be giving Winter School classes this year.<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://bp2.blogger.com/_PcJNL7Oavp8/SETtH3AVvqI/AAAAAAAAABE/VuGdSemnCKM/s1600-h/anniet1.JPG"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://bp2.blogger.com/_PcJNL7Oavp8/SETtH3AVvqI/AAAAAAAAABE/VuGdSemnCKM/s400/anniet1.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5207547788427378338" border="0" /></a><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://bp2.blogger.com/_PcJNL7Oavp8/SETnyb5rQUI/AAAAAAAAAA8/DvFKlplts8Q/s1600-h/anniet2.JPG"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://bp2.blogger.com/_PcJNL7Oavp8/SETnyb5rQUI/AAAAAAAAAA8/DvFKlplts8Q/s400/anniet2.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5207541922816278850" border="0" /></a><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/5885661362894969005-8590163057422670961?l=friendsofsturt.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Friends of Sturthttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10207463870822715874noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5885661362894969005.post-15739123045132857222008-05-14T02:55:00.000-07:002008-05-14T04:07:51.053-07:00For the first weekend in May, a group of around 20 people made their way to Arthur and Yvonne Boyd's Bundanon Trust's 'Riversdale Education Centre'. The plan was to relax, be inspired and to make. In such amazing surroundings, we couldn't help but succeed!<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://bp2.blogger.com/_PcJNL7Oavp8/SCrAquqkKzI/AAAAAAAAAAM/5WgXdpsvEO4/s1600-h/spinnersview.JPG"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://bp2.blogger.com/_PcJNL7Oavp8/SCrAquqkKzI/AAAAAAAAAAM/5WgXdpsvEO4/s320/spinnersview.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5200180560066259762" border="0" /></a>As a Friends of Sturt weekend outing, the weekend was organized to be a brief inspirational retreat - kind of like a mini-residency. We arrived at different times on Saturday to stunning Autumnal weather and settled down, in our different ways, to making and relaxing. With full catering and exceptional architecturally designed accommodation, we had nothing else to worry about.<br /><br />The images here are just a small album of the weekend.<br /><br />Inspiration was not hard to come by...<br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://bp3.blogger.com/_PcJNL7Oavp8/SCrAq-qkK0I/AAAAAAAAAAU/QsANVD9Owg4/s1600-h/paintersview.JPG"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://bp3.blogger.com/_PcJNL7Oavp8/SCrAq-qkK0I/AAAAAAAAAAU/QsANVD9Owg4/s320/paintersview.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5200180564361227074" border="0" /></a>Our President, Ruth, brought some clay...<br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://bp3.blogger.com/_PcJNL7Oavp8/SCrAq-qkK1I/AAAAAAAAAAc/KA2SjE3erhs/s1600-h/ruthclaywork.JPG"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://bp3.blogger.com/_PcJNL7Oavp8/SCrAq-qkK1I/AAAAAAAAAAc/KA2SjE3erhs/s320/ruthclaywork.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5200180564361227090" border="0" /></a>...and was inspired by the luscious vegetation....<br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://bp0.blogger.com/_PcJNL7Oavp8/SCrArOqkK3I/AAAAAAAAAAs/gF2B2rcw_hk/s1600-h/ruthsleaf.JPG"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://bp0.blogger.com/_PcJNL7Oavp8/SCrArOqkK3I/AAAAAAAAAAs/gF2B2rcw_hk/s320/ruthsleaf.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5200180568656194418" border="0" /></a>The creek walk was like another world away...<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://bp3.blogger.com/_PcJNL7Oavp8/SCrAq-qkK2I/AAAAAAAAAAk/2GyHp5EZNdc/s1600-h/creekwalk.JPG"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://bp3.blogger.com/_PcJNL7Oavp8/SCrAq-qkK2I/AAAAAAAAAAk/2GyHp5EZNdc/s320/creekwalk.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5200180564361227106" border="0" /></a>We all had a wonderful time and returned home refreshed and revitalized, inspired and eagerly planning our next visit.<br /><br />-- Melanie, Friend of Sturt Committee member.<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/5885661362894969005-1573912304513285722?l=friendsofsturt.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Friends of Sturthttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10207463870822715874noreply@blogger.com0
