Congratulations Margaret!

An announcement from Jasmin Tarasin and Muse and Maker Retreats:
The scholarship to the Artist Retreat Muse and Maker at Robertson has been awarded to Margaret Dubowski for her entry: 'Eucalypt' drawing in graphite and watercolour pencil on Hahnemuhle paper.

“The development of my art practice began with the wanderings and painting 'en plein air' with my mother and grandparents as a child along the south-eastern coasts of Australia. The artistic dabblings and conversations they included me in have influenced my work profoundly ever since. Gathering and discussing flora on our bushwalks, drying, pressing and sketching was wonderful to me…”

Congratulations Margaret!
