Exhibition History WINNER : 1998 HUNTER'S HILL OPEN ART PRIZE FINALIST: 1998 BLAKE PRIZE FOR RELIGIOUS ART FINALIST : 1998 DOBELL PRIZE FOR DRAWING, ART GALLERY OF NSW 1998 - 2000 Blake Prize Touring Exhibition Touring the Regional Galleries of Australia About the drawing Drawn at the Cooperage, C.S.R. Refinery, where they made the barrels for the rum at the Distillery. Now this building is the site of the "Cooperage cafe". This drawing focuses on the mysterious patterns of shadow made by the fall of light. The cavernous space & rows of columns reminded me of the interiors of cathedrals & ruined abbeys. The wall at the back was the famous butter-yellow Pyrmont sandstone, which has been quarried to decorate the best loved historic Sydney buildings such as the Australian Museum, the Sydney Post Office, the University of Sydney. At sunset the sandstone rock face caught the last rays of light & the derelict warehouse was transformed.				Exhibition History FINALIST:1996 GRAFTON JACARANDA DRAWING PRIZE WINNER:1996 PEOPLE'S CHOICE GRAFTON JACARANDA DRAWING PRIZE COLLECTION : MITCHELL LIBRARY (1/2 drawings). About the 2 drawings The ultimate bird’s eye view of Sydney – the top of the western pylon of the unfinished ANZAC Bridge. I decided to concentrate on the stark industrial landscapes on the north-west. After it was operational for 1 year did Bob Carr christen it the ANZAC Bridge. I was invited up here as the resident artist of the Pyrmont Power Station, when Sydney Electricity were discussing Bridge lighting the RTA & Baulderstone Hornibrook. While the bridge was being built, access to the top was by a tiny green lift, within the legs on the eastern and western side. After construction finished, access to the top was a lot more strenuous. The legs of the ANZAC Bridge are hollow! To get to the top one has to have the ability to climb a steel rung ladder- the last 30 metres are vertical.
