Artist Statement
‘Three generations of my family have spent time here. Lady Martins is a secluded little beach at the edge of the RPEYC, ‘the Yacht Club’, in Sydney. We have had many a lunch on the lawn, swam in the harbour, celebrated birthday’s, made BIG announcements and watched the world sail by… absolutely home for me.’
