I am currently finishing new works for my stall at the upcoming Heide Maker's Market.  (see work in progress photos below.)

​The market is in the sculpture park at Heide Museum of Modern Art, 7 Templestowe Road, Bulleen.  It is on Saturday 12 May from 10:00am to 3:00pm but I recommend arriving early as there is normally quite a crowd.

​The Heide Maker's Market has "an eclectic mix of art, design, hand crafted goods and tasty treats", all made by the stall holders.  www.heidemarket.com/

​While you are there, you can have a look at the wonderful collection of more than 35 sculptures in the Heide Sculpture Park.  There is no charge to visit the sculpture park.

You can also visit the galleries for an entry fee of $18 per adult.

My piece "Odette" is in the Toorak Village Sculpture Exhibition which is on until 10 June 2018.

​There are 97 sculptures on display in shop windows and on the pavement in the Toorak Village (on Toorak Road, between Grange Road and Tintern Av East) so it is well worth a visit.  It is free to look at the sculptures and you can get a catalogue and map from one of the participating shops.

"Odette" is in the window of Aveo Toorak, 28-30, Jackson Street, Toorak.  She looks better in person than in the photo as the reflections are not so obvious when you are there.

​This piece was created simply as a curvy, abstract form, but my wife pointed out that it suggests a swan from certain angles so I gave it the title "Odette" after the White Swan  from the ballet Swan Lake.
