The last part of our trip was a 10 day stay in a town called Dwellingup. I applied for and recieved an artist residency there so it was time to put down some temporary roots and start to work. The Residency is a house and studio managed by a group of artists. It is right in the middle of the downtown area of dwellingup which is a very small town in the forests south of Perth. It was a quiet life very conducive to relaxationa and artistic contemplation. We finished most days with a swim in the river pools. A great way to unwind and cool down. I brought my snorkle and fins and had a blast diving in the cool lakes. I found 11 pairs of sunglasses 25 feet down although most had been on the bottom too long to be of use. I did find a pair that Jeri thinks are just perfect though...
After a Week of quiet life Jeri and the Kids were itching to get back to their Freo life where thay are more autonomous and have lots to do. I Stayed a few more days in the country.
Now I am looking foor a usable studio and exhibition space. I am getting caught up on the blog and ready to really start work.
