What are you doing this Friday night 18th October?  If you’re in Melbourne why not come on down to the beautiful Abbotsford Convent, have a drink or ten with me, and maybe even pick up a barganza piece of original artwork from some of our best illustrators?!

The Illustrators Australia annual 9 x 5 exhibition (works produced on a piece of 9 x 5 wood, inspired by the 1890 Heidelberg artists’ exhibition on cigar box lids), this year themed Flourish, has its new home at the Convent, and launches this Friday night with the usual silent auction.  Actually, bidding has already commenced online. With the exception of mine of course which is still waiting for the paint to dry…  The exhibition will continue for 3 weeks, but Friday night is your chance to bag an original piece from talented artists whose work would normally cost you a lot more… Check it.
