The mighty V8's are coming to town! Thirty years ago I would have been agog with excitement. Then there was the fuel crisis. Then there was global warming. Mostly what happens is I just got old. Now I worry about traffic congestion and how I will get to work when Boundry Street is closed. |

Painting and drawing has been a lifetime passion. Heather's goal is to paint something that is pleasing to the eye that gives satisfaction to the artist and the viewer. These magpie geese "posed" for Heather when she visited Billabong Sanctuary recently.

Inspiration comes from the tropical environment around me. We often take for granted nature's simple beauty. How you perceive that beauty is coloured by who you are. |

We drew up a short list of exotic places and experiences that might make for a special and unusual Mother's Day, but couldn't help wondering what a Renaissance Lady would make of a Dublin Bus Pass. |

Having worked mainly in oils before, it is only recently I have been trying my hand at pastel. I have to say I am loving this direct approach to creating a picture. The instant mark making is very satisfying.

Watercolour as a medium is so versatile; it can match a mood and a subject from the softest rose, a small boat out at sea to a bright tropical garden with its colours, myriad shapes and lines. I like to both control the medium and then at times let the water work with the paint. |

Uli Liessmann He is an acute observer of the human condition, and offer, visual images, witty, and at times acerbic, comment on contemporary Australian social mores. An element of surrealism in the drawing is achieved through distortion, exaggerated foreshortening, and deliberated manipulation of perspective, especially with regard to architectural components. Works are richly narrative, and some are composed in an almost iconic manner. His work is bathed in rich, warm colour intensified by the uniform choice of black mount and frame, and every piece will reward the thoughtful viewer with and insight into the layers of meaning which lie beneath the visual image.

I'm looking at women in the landscape and women as a landscape. Women appear here as a grove of trees (a femine symbol) to remind us of our connection with the Earth and that together we stand strong. |

I am a self taught artist, and work almost exclusively with watercolour in the traditional way, using subtle colours along with strong shading and highlights to create a pleasant image. |

Barbara Pierce An early interest in textiles developed into an interest in combining different materials. Collage is an area which she continues to explore. | mixed 11.3 x 11.3 x 3 cm |

As a small child, my most precious memory of mother's day was picking flowers and fern from the garden, wrapping them with paper and ribbon and giving them to my mother. |
