End of “Anything Goes” Exhibition

Arrived this morning, to take down the exhibition, and am pleased to report that I have sold two pieces.

'Brooch disappears from show'

Cutting from the North Shore Times - 7 May 2010

Opening night – and missing brooch

Here are a few photos from the opening night of the “Anything Goes” exhibition.



The highlight, or should I say lowlight, of the evening was discovering on arrival that one of my Art-Brooches had been ‘stolen’. (It must have disappeared sometime between the hanging of the exhibition on Saturday afternoon and Monday evening). The canvas was still there on the panel but the brooch was missing. I guess I should be flattered but it was disappointing that it was the brooch I had made especially for, and named after, the exhibition ("Anything Goes"). So now there is a little notice stuck on the canvas, apologising for the brooch not being there (just visible in the top centre of the photo above).


This is the missing brooch - any help in locating its whereabouts would be greatly appreciated. The design is a one-off original, with the Design Number CF036 on the back.

Hanging the “Anything Goes” exhibition

Today, I went to hang the thirteen pieces (4 small paintings and 9 Art-Brooches) at the Bruce Mason Centre, Takapuna. Here is a picture of my panel, which is well positioned, being one of the first ones you see as you come in the main doors.


I am really looking forward to the opening night, on Monday 3rd May
