Gippsland Art Gallery - Art Aid - Nicole Tattersall and Megan Dell

Throughout my early years as an exhibiting artists many of the exhibitions and events I was apart of were in the Gippsland region, partly due a supportive auntie who owned a gallery in Leongatha. I also would take frequent surf trips through Gippsland which made it easy for me to visit galleries and arrange the showing of my artworks. The important role that the Gippsland community has played in my success as an exhibiting artist and the connection I have to the area through family made it a no brainier for me to make a donation of artwork to the Gippsland Art Gallery, Art Aid Gippsland auction. I have donated two collaborative skateboard artworks that I painted with Megan Dell, who also has strong family ties to Gippsland. I have donated 100% of funds from their sale to the Gippsland Emergency Relief Fund (GERF). 

The artworks did not make the cut for the exhibition/display, however they are up online for you to place a bid on. You bid on them at:
Bidding closes at 4pm AEST on Sunday 15 March 15, 2020.
