This lovely post by Megalo Print Studio and Gallery sums it up beautifully. Thank you, thank you, thank you! It was a wonderful residency and a stunning exhibition. I feel so lucky to have been a part of the Bonsai / Print journey.

Thanks to everyone for all your support of our Bonsai / Print exhibition -& thank-you also to all the artists involved in the residency - The exhibition has now closed after a fab run with a huge number of visitors, a great artist talk and several gorgeous rotations of work and trees. Special thanks to our press manager John Hart who spearheaded the whole thing! Stay tuned for our next exhibition 'Between a Rock and a Hard Place' showcasing the work of Lancaster Press ... More on this soon!

It's not long until the Bonsai / Print residency culminates in a wonderful exhibition (by the same name) at Megalo Print Studio and Gallery. Opening at 2pm this Saturday (9th April), the exhibition is on for 3 weeks. The exhibited bonsai and some of the artwork will change on a weekly basis during the exhibition period. If you're in Canberra in the next 3 weeks, I hope you can make it to Megalo for a visit (or two) to see the beautiful Bonsai / Print exhibition as it evolves.

For the last few months I have been working on a series of katagami stencils as part of Megalo Print Studio and Gallery's Bonsai + Print Project 2015-16: http://www.megalo.org/projects-2/bonsai-print-residency-2015/.

A change-of-season cold has kept me in bed for a couple of days but I'm hoping to be well enough to spend time in my studio over the Easter weekend.

This is a wonderful interview with my lovely friend, the incredibly talented, Melinda Heal. Melinda responds to questions about learning traditional Japanese dyeing techniques, her artistic process and approach, returning to Australia and her future direction as a textile artist.
