From Ashfield Sydney to Seelands Grafton

Early morn shot of the local marsupials!
I'm sitting by the clarence river as I write this, the sun dapples through the grapevine and prettily on the river.  I have 2 kangaroos chewing the cud in front of me and a cat lazy and fast asleep beside me.  What a rural change from the city pace.


I really enjoyed my time in Sydney particularly socially.... meeting lots of lovely people at the workshops and the tennis club, Anthia and Gerard, a special thanks for their hard work at the council  and sipping wine at the art galleries with new friend and colleague Sandra Winkworth.  Will post the final finished drawings from the residency.  Have another on its way inspired by my time there and changes here. 
Wrap up party... and some of my etchings...
I'm getting into the rural lifestyle with a veggie patch on its way... doesnt look much right now...
weeds dug out and some herbs and veges planted
