I planted a gum tree in my backyard in Bassendean about four years ago and its growth was stunted for awhile. I worried that it wasn't going to survive. It has since flourished and I am very proud to say that Nalda Searles has made a feature from its branches in The Gallery, Ellenbrook. The branches are underneath a selection of beautiful handmade flowers by artist's from The Western Desert. There are over 160 flowers on display at both galleries I recommend that you don't miss this wonderful exhibition! |
