I made this fun postcard as a part of the #savetoondahharbour. The Eastern Curlew are amazing birds which fly thousands of kms every year from Siberia along the eastern flyway to Australia and then they turn around and go back. They are ENDANGERED because much of their habitat has been destroyed. It is important that The Toondah Harbour development does not go ahead as it is a critical habitat. If you are an artist you can join the #toondahpostcardproject and send your postcard to Tania Plibersek and Leanne Linard.

The following 20 prints are from the current (ends 31.1.23) exhibition "Ephemera" at Savills Lindfield Road Lindfield NSW.
The universe is in constant change, and with this flux things around us are changing form.
Ephemera is a series of prints which reveals glimpses of what I experienced and my responses to what I see on my walks and swims in the Hat Head National Park. A shell on the beach was once an animal in the sea and will become sand which provides habitat for other plants and animals and so it goes. I enjoy looking at these objects and find many of them beautiful.
The landforms, weather systems, plants and animals are in flux. The sun, water and wind drive these changes. They always deliver new experiences whether it is a new seasonal flower, a new vista, microclimate, or animal.
As we have all experienced the natural environment is in distress and the warming climate continues. We must continue to campaign local, state and federal governments to create policy to reduce warming, to stop polluters and environmental destruction. We all have a duty to reduce our footprint, our very lives depend on it.
Please note that these photos were taken before all prints were dried and flattened and framed and may appear a little distorted. All framed works are flattened and square.

The Ancient Greeks worshipped the earth, animals and plants, and of course The Gods.
Iris is one of the Goddess’ of the Sea and The Gods messenger to humanity.
Modern, Western humanity seems to have forgotten its place in the world and how important the earth, animals and plants are to it’s very survival. The result being global warming and all the horror that that brings.
Iris is seen here in the sea surrounded by diverse sea animals and plants. She brings the message from The Gods that we need to nurture this wonderful earth.

During the 2021 Sydney COVID-19 lockdown the walking tracks around Middle Harbour became a solace for me, an escape from confinement, allowing me to get into nature, experiencing the sun, wind, rain, plants and animals.
Every Friday my husband and I would search out a new track and go exploring. The landscape never disappointed us. It always delivered us new experiences whether it was new season flowers, a new vista or microclimate or animal.
Along the Track is a series of prints which reveals glimpses of what I experienced on our walks.
On Sydney’s north shore we are immensely fortunate to have these areas of nature set aside for us only 13km from the CBD.
While walking I have worried what will happen to these green spaces as the warming climate continues. We must continue to campaign for increased targets to provide employment for workers in warming industries and targets to reduce warming.

My etching Barnacles
will be in the “InkWell” exhibition
on at the Toowoomba Art Society,
between 29 July until 25 August 2019.
It is a part of a print exchange between Warringah Print Makers and The Toowoomba Art Society. The theme is "Place"This year I am working on a series which focuses on the animals and plants that live in and around the sea. Our oceans and the animals and plants in them are threatened by global warming and plastic pollution among many other man-made problems. I wish to depict the beauty and complexity of these animals and plants which may soon become extinct.
The Rose-coloured Barnacle, Tesseropora rosea lives a very precarious life as it’s “Place” is on vertical, rocks near the sea which are exposed to the extremes of the sun and the sea. The barnacles require broken water and spray which it sends it’s feeding tentacles into, to catch small organisms on which to feed.
