Abi Awarded in the HAEG Watermark
Linden’s 15 year old daughter Abi Giblin is a very talented artist, designer and photographer. A few months ago she was highly commended in the student section of the Tasman Portrait Prize and last night she received one of the two student awards from the HAEG (Huon Art Exhibition Group) Watermark Art Award Competition. To top that off, Abi sold her painting directly after the presentation for a good price (photo below of Abi with her latest art patron) – you can’t beat that red dot in an exhibition.

Needless to say Abi’s mother Linden (photo below) and I were as proud as punch and know Abi has a great future in the art / design world. She is talented, intelligent and articulate – three key aspects that significantly improve one’s opportunities in any career. So a big congratulations to Abi for the award.

Linden and I have pieces in the exhibition as well so if you’re in the Cygnet area over the next few weeks drop by and check out the Town Hall.
