It was sad to hear the story about a San Fransico artist named Holli Hawthorne. She recently was involved in a motorcycle accident in India which has left her in a coma. Family and friends are trying to raise US$150,000 to get her back home. Holli was unfortunately uninsured. I know things are pretty tough at the moment and we have had enough troubles in our own backyard with the shocking bushfires etc. But I urge you to donate a few dollars towards her plight, to help bring a fellow artist home.

This year I had two sculpture pieces selected for the Gosford Art Prize, Roy's Fusion and Sure Ain't Sushi. Last friday night at the opening night and awards, I was in shock to hear I had won a prize for the Sculpture Award. The judge Tony Geddes, director of Mosman Art Gallery, could not decide between my piece Sure Ain't Sushi and Larissa Smargarinsky's Guitar man, so this years prize was shared. I am priveledged to share the prize with renowned artist Larissa Smargarinsky and wish to thank Tony Geddes for his understanding of the piece and his supportive comments, the sponsors and all staff at Gosford Regional Art Gallery.
