    FOR

    HILDA, ROCHELLE AND ALLANA

    My biggest fans and biggest critics

    ACKNOWLEDGMENTS

    I owe many thanks to:

    Janine Adele, Sandra Baker and Kathy and Bill Dowling, for the opportunity to exhibit my work.

    Cie Elle Digital Imaging and Fine Art Reproduction of Ermington NSW, for plates 4, 10, 20, 25, 30, 37, 40, 51, 54 and 55.

    Karen Durand for her technical suggestions and patronage.

    Ms Denise Gold for her kind words about me in her foreword.

    Stephanie and Ivan Jan for their friendship, advice, assistance, encouragement and patronage.

    Aaron and Sam Sampson and staff at Aaron Framed It where I have all of my framing done. I appreciate that you laughed with me and not at me.

    Dan Waldon for his enthusiasm, and wonderful photography of my work.

    My beautiful and talented daughters Rochelle and Allana, for their invaluable assistance with the manuscript, and endless patience with their computer illiterate Dad.

    My wonderful and very tolerant wife Hilda, who for many years has managed to prepare the family meals around tubes of acrylic paint, rolls of masking tape, pencils, brushes, varnish, turps, jig saws, sawdust, glitter, clay…

    And finally my mischievous English Staffie Tiger Lily, who proved to be a much needed distraction when the computer, fonts, page layout, PDF and EPUB files seemed to conspire against me. And who has managed so far to destroy only one of my paintings, to my knowledge.
