SCBWI Illustration Workshop

SCBWI Scribble was a great and inspiring workshop for picturebook creators. Host Lindy Batchelor helped our appreciation of work. We, illustrators and authors sketched at each stop for 15 to 20 minutes in NSW Art Gallery. *if you want to know more, come over my facebook that shared SCBWI's photos, too. 

William Dobell's self-portrait, oil interested me, a watercolour painter. https://www.artgallery.nsw.gov.au/collection/works/399.1985/
One line drawing of SCBWI staff! Thank you very much for organising it for us. 
Study of "Summer morning" (oil) by Elioth Gruner. Light and colour intrigued me. https://www.artgallery.nsw.gov.au/collection/works/6886/
"The England Channel," sculpture by Michael Parekowhai. This provocative work on James Cook is slippery, reflecting our distorted images on himself like a mirror. Yet, he looked sad in my eyes. https://www.artgallery.nsw.gov.au/collection/works/432.2016/
"Reconciliation," work in progress. The Indigenous people's sculptures inspired me. We, Australians' dream that children and Aboriginal people will dance together in the future.
Lindy, you're so informative, inspiring, caring and sensitive to each participant. Thank you very much for your labour of love. Really a wonderful event has offered a mutual support, networking and friendship. 
Friends, with my mentors (Ann James, Helen Chamberlin) and established creators' support, I enjoy my career in publishing industry. Happy Painting!

  3. A wonderful bunch of paintings and what a great event for you - I know you can do so much in just 15 minutes of sketching because you have been practicing for years (but not too many years, we are still not old! ha ha)
