Shell Long, A space to be, 25 August 2020
I am an art therapist, working in the field of family violence. This artwork represents my dream for a space in which joint creativity is possible without the impacts of social distancing and isolation. Every avenue I have tried so far has presented its own unique challenges.

Andre Sardone, Bird Feeder Gong, 30 August 2020
I like to explore the ways that the local fauna can interact with my artwork.
In this version, as these crimson rosellas land on the feeding dish it swings and an internal cog strikes the cylinder resulting in a deep gong, which resonates but doesn’t frighten the birds.

This is the last in the crackle-base series. I have bought some new enamels and will be experimenting with them over the coming weeks.
Angela Morrissey, Spiderman, 30 August 2020
I did a drawing of Spiderman, as I believe in the importance of superheroes and how movies like Marvel show us that good can overcome and win over evil.
We need more superheroes in real life although our emergency service personnel are our true heroes in these times of crisis!
