My pictures are up at Botannix Yoga Studio & café in Botany. I went over yesterday and took some pictures of them with customers enjoying a yummy lunch or coffee with the show.
A list of works in the show and prices is available on my website.
The introduction to the show is as follows:
Dear Viewer
Thank you for looking. I put this
collection together to celebrate one of the most important people in our lives
- mothers.
Mine passed away in December 2011, a month shy of her 92nd birthday. Bonnie Malpas was fabulous. A classically trained pianist, she raised 10
children (two of us were adopted).
Somehow she managed to keep us all fed, clothed and schooled and in line! For all of these years she was also following
her passion: she played in a touring folk orchestra and taught piano. It was Mum who taught me the art of living
well and living with empathy, and kindness.
Mum loved flowers and birds. She
knew the names of every plant and bird.
As a gardener I have admit she was terrible but not for want of
enthusiasm and instilled the love of these things in me.
I hope these pictures make you smile and/or think fondly of your
mother.
If they do, then they have done their job.
