My main inspiration comes from what is directly around me...I remember combinations of colours I see in houses ,pictures, gardens, buildings or sculptures here and round the world. CRESSIDA CAMPBELL
Book Tickets to Cressida Campbell here....... Events | The National Gallery of Australia (nga.gov.au)
Cressida Campbell is among Australia’s most significant contemporary artists working with painting and printmaking. Directly inspired by her surroundings, for over 40 years the Gadigal/Sydney-based artist has transformed commonplace experiences from her life into single edition prints and painted woodblocks.
Combining keen observation with a delicacy of line, Campbell’s woodblock paintings and prints capture the overlooked beauty of the everyday. Through her views of a working harbour or burnt bushland, an arrangement of nasturtiums or a plate of ripening persimmons, the artist celebrates the transitory moments of life.
The survey exhibition will present the depth and virtuosity of Campbell's work, extending from intimate interior views through to panoramic coastal landscapes. It will be accompanied by an exhibition catalogue that features writing from curators, artists, poets and other voices.
Cressida Campbell is a Know My Name project.
Curator: Dr Sarina Noordhuis-Fairfax, Curator, Australian Prints and Drawings

There’s so much to do, and the location couldn’t be better!” What surprised you during your stay this time? “I was really surprised to learn that you offer one- and two-bedroom apartments. It was a nice surprise! The BBQ area and the green grass were also a highlight—perfect for letting the girls run around after a long drive.” What did you enjoy most about your two-bedroom apartment? “We absolutely loved the full-sized kitchen, the comfortable living space, and the laundry facilities. The BBQ area and landscaped gardens were also a lovely bonus.

I was so surprised to learn that you also have one and two-bedroom apartments available; after staying here for 10 years I had no idea and enjoyed the extra facilities.
