President's Letter (and inspiration from Auguste Rodin via our editor)

 Where did I learn to understand sculpture? In the woods by looking at the trees, along roads by observing the formation of clouds, in the studio by studying the model, everywhere except in the schools.”

— Auguste Rodin

Happy New Financial Year everyone,

Van Phu Le "Who am 1? Who are They?" 

We put on a great performance at the Annual and Awards Exhibition - a glittering show of art and artistry. We celebrated our winners and acknowledged that every work had serious merit - except for Aukje van Vark’s Happy Dance which was seriously happy. And congratulations to the winner of the People’s Choice Award - Van Phu Le for “Who am I? Who are they?” and runner up Sue Smales for “BooBook”
