Today I attended the Good Shepherd Community House in St Albans to launch its ceramic mural project. Participants and staff turned out to view the art work for the first time and were very happy with the results. Over the course of a few months earlier in the year I ran weekly workshops in which it was created. It has now been installed in the back yard and is a wonderful colorful addition to the surrounds.

At last the Arts Victoria Funded Artist in Residence at Murrumbeena Primary School I have been involved in has been launched. Along with year 3, 4, 5 and 6 student's and Art Teacher Jenny Solomon we made a creative play space and interactive ceramic installation. The Theme was "90 Years of History" drawing on the rich and diverse history of the area including the famous art family the Boyd's, the areas Indigenous story and that of settlement. Six sculptured totem poles covered in information and images can be explored to discover the history of the area and fabulous pictorial stepping stones weave around the poles. It's very exciting that at last its creators can explore the completed art work and enjoy their creative endeavors.
