The Hi Tea held at the Rocky Sports Club on our behalf to raise funding for our building project was a resounding success thanks to our hardworking Secretary / Treasurer Marion and our Junior Vice President Murray as well as Shea and her team from The Rocky Sports Club. The funds raised will help with the plumbing works that we will now start to proceed with. The second shed funding is in the laps of the gods with 2 major grants decisions becoming available in April.
Thanks everyone for coming to the Hi Tea and we look forward to our next event and hope it is as entertaining as the Hi Tea.

“Joyous Blooms”
Art: Many Spring blossoms
Size: 90 x 60 cm
This print will go on auction at The High Tea at The Rocky Sports Club on Saturday 20th March 2012
“With the promise of spring, flower buds burst into life. The promise of fruit as the reward for the bloom is secondary to the beauty of the flowers that are first.”
This piece has brought many happy memories in our home and those of our extended families. The original art currently resides at my Mother’s house in CQ after belonging in the SEQ for some years.
The artwork is a limited edition, 3 of 250, fine art print and has been produced from my original artwork. It has been professionally printed on 340 gsm, museum grade Illford Galerie canvas to stand the test of time.
Thank you for enjoying my art…
I’m Michelle and am a local Rockhampton artist.
I’ve been a closet creative who brought out my inner artist only when needed to whip up a special gift for family and friends.
You’ll find my developing online art gallery presence and biography on Bluethumb at this link: https://bluethumb.com.au/rascalryans/bio
The intention of my art is always to inspire much love, beauty and a sense of freedom. I’m honoured to be associated with the wonderful men at the Men’s Shed.
Warmest regards,
Michelle Ryan (aka Shells)
