G/Day Folks, I'm a deat set proud Dad !
My youngest Daughter Catherine has a painting of Hers entitled "Tigers in Crisis" entered in the Morton Bay Youth Art Awards. The award ceremony was last night, sadly She didn't win a place - BLOODY WRONG if you ask me [ slightly Biased smile emoticon ] , perhaps the subject matter was to controversial for the Judges ? Catherine is still up for Peoples Choice award. The Painting and many other excellent Artworks the Shires young People have done is on display at the Strathpine Community Centre 199 Gympie Road [ off Mecklem St ] Please get down there 3pm to 6 pm Weekdays and Weekends 10am - 4pm [ free admission ] and Vote for "Tigers in Crisis" which is on Display from now until the 25th of October, turn right after you walk in you'll see a near 2m Tall Tigers Head painted across 4 Canvas's with cleverly hidden messages and Texture, Recycled Canvas etc as to the negative environmental effects of Palm Oil Plantations and Corporations mindless pursuit of Profit over the Planets Health
and here's last Years effort, a Finger Painting believe it or not. She mixed the the same Colours as our Cat.
regards Perry

as an artist myself i would like to congratulate your daughter on her splendid art, Perry. she certainly has a talent. don't worry to much about judges as I believe a lot of them in the art world couldn't paint a wriggly line themselves.
