Robyn Pattison

➖What is your style of art?
I decorate cakes for many occasions and over the past few years have been venturing more into sugar art. I love trying new and challenging designs to see what I can achieve.

➖Tell us a bit about what you do.
I started making my children’s birthday cakes and then after making a cake for my father-in -law and thought I would like to know more so I decided to go to the local cake decorating classes taught by Janice Smith and have been enjoying decorating and being part of our cake decorating community ever since.

➖What does your art mean to you?
It gives me joy to see an idea come to life and I love seeing people’s faces when they receive a product that makes them smile.

Clinton Lamb

➖What is your style of art?
My art is first nations traditional cultural arts dance, song, painting making traditional artifacts like clap sticks, didgeridoo, spear.

➖Tell us a bit about what you do.
I’ve been learning cultural education and handling it down to the next generation. Over the years my cultural art is in everything I do in my daily life, observing mother nature’s beautiful landscapes and animals telling stories about the land and the connection with me and my Gamilaroi people have had on this land for thousands of years.

➖How long have you been creating your art and what does your art mean to you?
I’ve been doing this professionally for 17 or more years, since I was young took 15yr old I always played didgeridoo, yidaki, and danced around the house when I was a little kid my nanny Pam Smith would teach us culture through songs in language and traditional dance & painting, also my mother and father Charmaine lamb and Michael Smith was big influence. Mum was a very popular artist with her paintings and spiritual well knowledgeable about our cultural protocols and rules. Mat Priestley, Gwenda Stanley, Gumaroy Newman, Russel Dawson… too many to mention that mentored me. I had to travel out of town to meet people to learn other things about my tribe, dances & information that I couldn't find in my community and bringing it back here started dance group at 17 years old and never looked back. I am lucky to be guided by such beautiful and strong people.

➖What shall we expect to see you bring to Narrabri’s Heart of Art?
I'll bring local Narrabri Gamilaroi cultural arts, showcasing young gen dancing. I could do couple of dance pieces myself, but I feel greedy if I do. I’ve travelled around the country teaching and showcasing my culture, Collarenebri, Sydney, Brisbane, Rockhampton Coffs Harbour, Melbourne, Tennent Creek, & Canberra.

Heidi Gleeson.

➖What is your style of art?
Well I'm not sure if I have a certain style of art. I range from Face Painting to abstract paintings and also murals. A little bit of everything.

➖How long have you been creating your art?
I've always loved drawing and painting since I was little, but really got into art in high school and art was the main subject I loved. I think I got so inspired by my art teacher Silver, he showed me how to use my creativity.
As for face painting, I did a few friends make-up for Halloween around 2013 and one of them suggested that I try kids face painting and it went from there. I've had a few years off between surgery and 2 little girls. That's why my face book page is very neglected. I am in the middle of starting a new business page to incorporate all my creations together. I'm also in the process of painting a mural at our local toy library.

➖What does your art mean to you?
My paintings are a way for me to escape and express myself. I go into another headspace whilst painting and I just love being creative.
Face painting for me.....well I have one rule with the kids "you can't look until I'm finished" the happiness in kids faces when I show them is my joy with face painting. I can sit for 6 hrs straight without getting up once whilst face painting and not realise how long I've been sitting there for. I just get so zoned in and enjoy every minute, even when I can't stand up properly afterwards.

➖What shall we expect to see you bring to Narrabri’s Heart of Art?
I will be there Face Painting and also bring a few of my own paintings.

Konnie Wilson - Blooms On Maitland

➖What is your style of art?
My style of art is a floral and event styling it is a very fluid and ever changing art that changes from day to day and the occasion.

➖Tell us a bit about what you do.
I create floral designs for the every day occasion as well as detailed larger events including weddings and parties or dinners, fresh florals can be used to make a small or large impact to any event.

➖How long have you been creating your art?
I have been working in the floral industry for 5 years operating my own store Blooms On Maitland but before that I started with cake decorating which made a massive shift into fresh flowers in recent years.

➖What does your art mean to you?
My art can be very personal to me as sometimes you are major part of someones life moment from new life, a fabulous celebration of love or a personal and loving tribute to a family during at difficult time. It can be very satisfying to see someone get an unexpected delivery of fresh flowers.

➖What shall we expect to see you bring to Narrabri’s Heart of Art?
On the day I will have mix of dried & preserved floral arrangements, fresh market bunches and small table styling items for Christmas.
