This year the Blindside fundraising exhibition will be presented online. I'm delighted that Jordan Mitchell-Fletcher has invited me to be her 'B-Side' creating work that compliments hers. We will be presenting a work each from our respective drawing practices, an area of our practices that is not often seen. Each drawing will be available for sale with part of the proceeds going towards the continued operation of Blindside. Though the exhibition is held annually, this year our local arts organisations will require great support given the implications of COVID-19 restrictions upon small businesses in Melbourne.
