Creative Voyage- Tasmania
Join me for five glorious days on a bespoke creative tour of Tasmania. A hand-picked selection of intimate experiences that include behind the scenes visits to potter’s workshops, glimpses of hidden sea caves and deserted beaches, walking the tracks of Kunaynai with a printmaker, a fiery blacksmith’s studio hidden in the heart of the city. Luxury accomodation, slow breakfasts, bespoke tableware, magnificent wild seas and intimate gatherings sharing local food with artists, designers, farmers and chefs.

Marvene Ash- painting and gouache

Shannon Garson - Porcelain Vessels
An exciting group exhibition at Fieldtrip Gallery.
The artists in this exhibition have an approach to landscape that looks through the landscape, focussing on macro details, the distance is concertined and minutiae is accentuated. The work evokes immersive experience of Australian landscape rather than a point of view overlooking this is a walk through the bush.

Creative Voyage- Maleny -Noosa
Welcome to Creative Voyage Maleny. This voyage is so close to my heart as we begin in the beautiful, magical, town of Maleny and the creative community that I call home. The oasis of the Tamarind Retreat will be our base for 5 days exploring the creative life, food and landscape of the Blackall Range
"Wrack" Opening night with music and projection and artist talk
Premiere of a new body of porcelain and drawings in Maleny.
In March I traveled to Tasmania (Lutrwita) to the Tessellated Pavement an ancient rock shelf, jutting out to sea, criss-crossed with crevasses and geological scars, colonised by crabs, sea anemones. The pans and loaves rock formations create a "wrack-zone" where treasures rich and strange accumulate deposited and taken by the waves.
Come and see this new porcelain and drawing inspired by the wrack-zone in an immersive experience with improvised music by Louise King and projection by Daphne Hart. Dr Alexandra Lawson from USQ will complete the evening with an artist’s interview.
Event includes light supper.
Splendid Surfaces- One Day Workshop
Come to Maleny and explore the world of ceramic colour and drawing without using glazes! With a painterly approach, learn to work in an intuitive, expressive way to get layered, sophisticated surfaces, using a mix of underglazes, oxides and glaze stains taking your work to the next level.
