14 botanical illustrations, better now known as the "Hunter Heritage Flora Collection" commissioned by the Hunter Region Botanic Gardens has just completed two months of being on show at both the Gardens foyer gallery and the Mezzanine Gallery at Port Stephens Council, Raymond Terrace.
The show was well received and attracted lots of good publicity by the local papers. Jill Stowells from The Newcastle Herald H2 (12th September) wrote a half page including artwork about the exhibition and the Natural History Illustration course.
Many thanks to Jan Noble, Chloe Beevers (See inset photo) and everyone that came and supported the launches. Especially Herman and Trish for your help with setting up and running. With a special thanks to the Port Stephens Community Choir who entertained all who came to the second opening.
Prints in both black and white (10) and colour (4) are available for purchase in the Hunter Region Botanic Gardens. Price $35 and $40 respectively, unframed.
They will be again be on show in August next year when the Gardens will be host to the Botanic Gardens Conference. I'll will post more details as they come to hand.
