Exhibition - all my own work!

At last - solo exhibition opening at Goulburn Street Gallery, 89-93 Goulburn Street, West Hobart at 6pm on 3 September 2010. Lots of new paintings never seen before (except on my website) - like this one

Birdbath - oil on canvas 40cm x 50cm

Hope you get along to see it!

GreenArt 2010

The Tasmanian Greens annual fundraising auction is on again; the
exhibition runs from 16-21 June at the Long Gallery, Salamanca Arts
Centre. It opens on Sunday 20 June at 2pm and the auction will begin at
2.30pm. However, the public can make 'silent bids' via the
GreenArt web page from Monday 24 May 2010.
This is my contribution.

One day I'll get my act together enough to write something interesting here!

Piccies of me

Decided it was time to update the image of myself on my website - so here is a pretty picture of Miss Barsham at home

Artwork goes Everywhere

Tasmanian Regional Arts have sent me the itinerary for the 20 paintings they are touring around the state this year; here's a link:
TRA tour itinerary; look at the artwork while you're on my website.

Zombies go west

Oh dear - what a slack little person I've been! Weld Echo came and went - and so did my paintings; off to Western Australia and Germany respectively. So here's a look at what they bought:


"Killer Zombies of the Weld" 60cm x 50cm oil on canvas



"Remnants" 50cm x 40cm oil on canvas

Weld Echo 2010

The Weld Echo exhibition for 2010 is upon us again - and I will be exhibiting two brand new paintings.

Weld Echo is coordinated by the Black Sassy Collective, the artistic arm of the Huon Valley Environment Centre (HVEC). The collective is a volunteer, not-for-profit, community based organisation and focuses on producing art exhibitions that provide local and grassroots artists with the opportunity to gain exposure.

The Weld Echo exhibition aims to create greater awareness of the destruction of the amazing southern forest of the Weld Valley, which is located 50 kilometres south west of Hobart.

The exhibition opens at 6pm on 3rd March at the Long Gallery, Salamanca Arts Centre, Hobart. Special Guest will be Australian Greens senator Christine Milne. Come along! Bring your friends!

I'll post photos of my paintings after the opening.

Showing off

Just thought I'd share a couple of new paintings. If somebody could tell me what they're all about, I'd be rather interested.

The Old Man and the Saw 61cm x 91cm

The Garden God 76cm x 91cm

New Ararat - 72cm x 72cm
