I lived in the Hawkesbury for about 20 years while I was raising my young brood of four kids. I didn't have an art practice then so its amazing to be returning to the old hood as a guest speaker and part of the Archibald Prize public program. Such a brilliant way to bring my Archie experience to a close. I was accompanied by Uncle Wes and cheered on by my friends and family for whom I am so grateful.
