Kinokuniya Exhibition 2009
Kinokuniya is a sprawling bookshop above Town Hall Station in the middle of Sydney.
It specialises in Japanese art and literature, as well as having an exceptional range of Art related books. (not to mention your traditional range of books)
It is a popular place for artists to display their work, as one can see everything as you ride up (or down) on the escalator. This exhibition ran for a week. The Enamellers Association has endeavoured to hold a charity event each year.
The Kinokuniya Exhibition occurred over Valentine's Day,
so we sold small enamelled hearts. The proceeds from these sales went to the Heart Foundation.
Fay Rooke Workshop August 2010
This event was organized by the Enamellers Association, and held in Mary Raymond’s studio in Sydney.
Fay, from Burlington Ontario is renowned for her exquisite enamelling.
However, in this workshop she had agreed to show us how to add form and dimension to enamelled pieces.
It was a very structured workshop, although the pieces seem to be quite free in form.
Fay is exceptionally generous with the information she shares with her students.
We all considered ourselves very fortunate to have had her as a tutor.
