"Conversations that make a difference"

Heather and Nicola speak about a life drawing 6 minute exercise that has turned into a limited edition screenprint. They talk about life's funny way of bringing people together when there is magic to be made.

Heather and Nicola met doing life drawing in Cairns in 2021 - Heather as the life drawing model and Nicola as an artist. Life Drawing was held at InkMasters, (now Northsite Contemporary Arts), Greenslopes Street, EdgeHill Then at the WOW - Women of the World Festival Marketplace held in May 2022, Nicol had a stall selling her artworks, Heather was attending the event via work as a nurse. This reconnecting has lead to a connection that has awakened a creative collaboration - watch this space as it unfolds.
