The 135 Stable

• Currently showing the vast range of Pip Williams lino prints . From her travels to New Zealand, Ghana, Japan, Vietnam & Cooktown to her beautiful landscapes & seascapes of the Bellarine. These are mostly multi layered (reduction technique) coloured works. Some take on an abstract, semi transparent quality combining several different prints hand layered on top of each other. These are more apparent in the scrolls & latest series featuring grevillea & spinebills.
• David Kerr, a ceramicist & old friend from Ballarat is still producing totally unique & quirky objects. While his amazing corrugated bird baths were produced some years ago, they still have a fragile charm about them. His more recent chunky clay bowls are based on his love of golf  (a fascination with the dimples in golf balls) have a raw gutsy feel- how all good golfers should approach the game!
• Pat O’Connell  cannot keep up with the demand for his delightful wire sculptures. Hopefully we will have more soon to add to the collection of bumble bees, grass stalks & a beautiful grass tree, which has grown much faster than my real ones!
• Annette Nichols, a very creative Danish lady from St Leonards has made some beautiful melon baskets, all from natural materials gathered from around the peninsular, &, I once saw her ‘borrow’ some interesting fallen leaves from the Geelong Botanic Gardens !
• Paul Kelly produces sculptures for the love of it from materials he sources  from all over Australia. The rocks are carefully hand selected & the steel is usually part of some bygone hand forged machinery  which take on a new life in his welded creations. They look fantastic in a garden setting or equally dramatic inside.
• Mike Duffield puts furniture & ornaments together from driftwood & other found objects on the beach. They range from quirky to majestic & are particularly suited to coastal style houses.
• Janine Clark's  necklaces are for those who want to be noticed. Made from 'bower bird ' combinations of objects ranging from tiny shells to leggo pieces to crochet in all the most beautiful colour combinations.
