Farewell 2024!

I had thought of writing something and in the end decided to simply show 2024 visually. Sometimes we just need to keep life less complicated …

Birdie in Novotel foyer

This great shot by photographer Frances Mocnik shows the birds from the perspective of the front reception staff welcoming visitors to Novotel Sydney City Centre from York Street, Sydney. The hotel is near Martin Place and the heart of the business district. Frances has captured my birds flying in (left) and flying (out). I had envisaged when visitors dine at Birdie Bar & Brasserie they would gather around the table with family, friends or even a solo moment. Hence the ‘flying in’ concept. When people departed, I could visualise them ‘flying out’ and onwards – back to work, on their way home or taking in the sights of Sydney.

A bird’s eye view

Recently, I asked Photographer Frances Mocnik to document my birds in their new location at Novotel Sydney City Centre. Having my artworks professionally photographed assists with prosperity, applying for grants/awards/prizes and other opportunities where the viewer needs to see my birds at their best.

I think you would agree Frances has captured them beautifully. Enjoy!
