Last week I attended the official opening of the Yarning Circle and Sorry Business outdoor space at Narrandera Hospital, where the Yarning Circle mural I painted was officially unveiled.
It was a wonderful day for members of the local community to gather to see this important space at the Narrandera Hospital opened.
I would like to thank the team at the Murrumbidgee Local Health District for their support in my painting of the yarning circle.

ART COLLABORATION WITH RACH VISKI OF MINTA VISKI
A couple of years ago I collaborated on an artwork with Riverina based digital artist Rach Viski of @mintaviski
Rach created a digital design to which I then added my dot painting techniques to create a mixed media artwork that was displayed at the @the.curious.rabbit gallery in Wagga Wagga.
We were delighted with how this piece turned out.
Rach and I have worked together again since this, and I’m looking forward to when I can share that project with you!

NARRANDERA HOSPITAL YARNING CIRCLE
Today I’m sharing another photo of the yarning circle mural I recently completed at the Narrandera Hospital.
This was a fantastic project as I was able to have kids from local schools come in to assist on the mural.
The students were able to learn more about Wiradjuri culture, and the final mural has a fantastic collaborative community feel to it.

GANGUDDY – Art Print on Canvas
Ganguddy, as it known by the local Wiradjuri people, is the are near Mudgee and Kandos. It is a stunning waterway running off the Cudgegong River, and is located in the beautiful Wollemi National Park.
During my time creating this piece, I listened to a particular song a lot. The song was “Headlights” written by Eminem, and I could really relate to this song on many levels.
The song tells the story between a mother and son, and of the mum’s mental illness journey to recovery and forgiveness."
