Let's open a bottle on Open Day

Open Day third session will be held on May 16th, 2021 from 11-3 pm.

The studio is located at 1/18 West St. Brookvale. NSW 2100

COVID UPDATE: BOOKINGS ARE LIMITED TO COMPLY WITH THE LATEST NSW GOVERNMENT REQUIREMENTS ON CAPACITY AND SOCIAL DISTANCING.

If you enjoy the small pleasures in life you don’t want to miss out on this one!

The next Open Day session will take you on a decadent adventure in a private and relaxing environment.

The day will start with an insight into my current developing series and most recent work to warm up.

As you graze to the taste of gourmet Argentinian empanadas by 4mates, the passionate team at Artisan Malbec will guide your palate through a taste of Argentinian Malbec, an iconic varietal that is growing in popularity around the world. You will be delighted with six wine styles from the region of Mendoza.

I look forward to welcoming you to my studio to discover the story behind the art, the wine, and the food. And yes, art and wine will be available for purchase (at members’ special price).

Argentinian gourmet degustation will be held from 12-2 pm

Due to the nature of this gathering bookings are essential and limited seating applies.

Open Days will be held on the third Sunday of every month (unless notified otherwise). Special guests will be announced through my newsletter the week before so tell your family and friends to subscribe so no one misses out!

A rising tide lifts all ships

Silly Season Greetings

Huge thank you for sticking by through a very tough year!

Whether you just subscribed to my newsletter or have been a loyal collector; I wouldn’t have been able to make it without your support.

This year brought a lot of challenges and insights but most of all gratitude for the opportunities that had come my way and the people that I have been able to share this artistic endeavour with. It also brought a puppy: Boni, the little rascal!

Wishing you and your family all the best for the holidays. Stay safe and may 2021 come loaded with good stuff for all!

Until then,

PS: I think Boni’s photo is a very accurate representation of how we all feel this year!

Welcome to my first ever blog (In Spanglish!)

It’s never too late to start doing things in life right? So to celebrate my birthday I decided to jump in with a few things I have never done before; like writing a little blog.

I’ll keep it short and sweet so you can’t notice my grammar mishaps, particularly after a full-on week at work when my brain starts switching into Spanish mode.

I have been giving it a lot of thought lately at what it means to me to be successful as an artist. I realize that this varies as my goals will change over time, but there are some milestones that will never change. Following my recent solo exhibition, Inward, I had received many constructive and positive feedback about the nature of my art practice. These had given me wings to keep exploring the relationship between art and medicine and to present my clinical journey to the audience with a positive approach towards healthcare, life, and their bodies. How lucky am I to be able to combine these two passions of mine?

During the exhibition period, I had the honour to be interviewed by Emma Kate Wilson for her project ‘Documenting Art in the time of Corona’ which is sponsored by the Northern Beaches Council. I am pretty stocked as my interview will be published shortly. In the meantime, check Emma’s project!

I am also very excited to announce that I am now part of the stable of artists at Sarah Birtles Art Consultancy. Sarah had been working in the commercial and public sector for over a decade, closing the gap between artists and collectors. She has worked with the Museum of Contemporary Art, Penrith Regional Gallery, Art Gallery of NSW, and Ovolo Hotels and regularly consults with private collectors. Check this out!

And last but not least, I want to acknowledge Anna Curnuck, Gallery Manager at Laurel Street Gallery, from whom I had received the most outstanding support. Anna and Wayne dived into this venture in the midst of the pandemic and trusted my performance as an artist which had only been rewarded through the last few months. Thank you!

All these amazing things happening only left me with a desire to celebrate. In Spanish, when we want to celebrate big time, we say “Voy a tirar la casa por la ventana” which translates “I am going to throw the house out the window”. I know this doesn’t make any sense so I am going to celebrate by adding a 30% store-wide discount over my birthday weekend. October 24th and 25th (my birthday is actually the 26th but Mondays are not fun!)

And for your support,

Gracias totales!

Happy Birthday to me!

Enjoy a complimentary 30% off store-wide for your support (Oct 24-25th)
