This show brings together lovely works focused on the bird – ranging from specific, real life accurate birds to creatures that have bird like characteristics  (mostly Tom’s work!)

The gallery is a small and intimate setting that showcases these detailed works.  The exhibition  runs from 26 September to the 18th October, seven days a week from 11am to 4pm at 27 Wade Street, Watson, Canberra.

 

 

Tom has sent two pieces, Sunshower Owl and Fernydell.
