Come and visit my studio during the Castlemaine State Festival 13-22 March 2015. You’ll be able to see Landforms-Lifeforms – a combination of drawings by Maritsa Gronda and my ceramics. The studio will be open on weekend afternoons – Sat & Sun 14th-15th & 21st-22nd, 1pm to 4pm.  The studio is in a lovely bush setting. To get there, download the Newstead Open Studios guide and map.

In our local Newstead area, 6 artists’ studios are open during the Festival featuring sculpture, ceramics, print, photography, drawing and painting.

Each day of the Festival, you can visit Trefor Prest’s studio and Roger McKindley’s Antares Iron Art Garden. Studio Paradiso at Sandon, featuring the prints of Dianna Orinda Burns, is open on 16-20 March.
