Paper, Canvas, Clay

Four diverse artists unite for one special show. Exhibiting artist Susan McAlister reports.

During October, Bulli’s Beach Art Gallery will host a unique exhibition featuring four members of the Illawarra Association of Visual Arts (IAVA).

Paper, Canvas, Clay will run from October 1-29, with an opening on Saturday, October 1 from 2-4pm. The exhibition will display works by local artists Angela Forest, Jennifer Jackson, Lara Seresin and Susan McAlister.

Angela is intrigued by the ways colours react to each other and the potent power they contain. She is inspired to capture her environment in landscape form, albeit abstract.

Jennifer Jackson creates mixed media artworks, which refer to the land. Experiences of local places where she walks are the basis for abstracted landscapes. Locations visited emerge as paintings referencing the sublime. The idea of looking through a suggested window allows the viewer to enter the works and continue the journey.

Lara Seresin has always been drawn to trees. She sets out to connect with her love, respect and

curiosity of them and then capture some spirit that may reside in them through her memory, imagination and observation.

Susan McAlister is a sculptor who loves the process of transforming clay into expressive figurative works. Susan endeavours to make connections to real life, translating inner visions into a sculptural reality.

These four very diverse artists are all members of IAVA, which is actively engaged in cultivating and promoting outstanding contemporary visual art.

IAVA is a not-for-profit organisation, a vibrant artist-run initiative that has a membership of professional artists and arts workers primarily residing in the Illawarra region.

The association provides its members with group exhibitions, social networking and professional development opportunities and makes a significant contribution to Australia’s contemporary art scene. n Paper, Canvas, Clay. Work by 4 IAVA Artists is at Bulli’s Beach Art Gallery, October 1-29. 2515

Writers Festival a big hit

The 2016 Thirroul Readers and Writers Festival, from September 2 to 4 at the Thirroul Community Centre, was a huge success, 2515 reports.

The fact MP Linda Burney, the first Indigenous woman elected to the Australian House of Representatives, officially opened the festival, was a clear indication of the high-calibre event to follow. Linda’s biographer, Illawarra novelist Noel Beddoe, as well as journalists Nonee Walsh and Chris Masters were just a few of the event’s many top-notch guests.

Festival director Victoria Keighery said it was “a moving and historic occasion” to hear Linda talk about her first week in parliament. 2515

Wintersun by Paul Ryan

Austinmer by Paul Ryan

‘Fairly dark and moody’ This is how renowned landscape artist Paul Ryan describes his paintings, which will be on show alongside works by more than 140 exhibitors at the Scarborough Art Show on October 8 and 9. Paul had a chat with 2515.

What’s so special about this art show?

There are a lot of artists in the northern suburbs, so the art show provides a venue … to exhibit their work and everyone knows that some of the proceeds go to a really good cause: putting money into the coffers of the Scarborough school.

The Scarborough Art Show has got a bit of a history now; it’s a show a lot of people go to and, of course, they sell a lot of paintings.

in the studio and you’re really happy with the finished result, it’s almost an adrenalin rush. Some of the work that I do dwells on the colonisation of Australia and it feels cathartic in a way to work on artwork that covers that territory. Artists are lucky that we have the opportunity to explore deeper thoughts and emotions and to be able to express our ideas on that. It’s important for all people to have an outlet; it’s useful for your mental wellbeing.

It’s exciting to be a part of a vibrant arts community…

It is nice, especially as visual artists, our lives are so sort of cloistered, we’re like hermits, [but here] I can pop down [to a cafe or beach] and I’ll probably run into one of my mates who’s in [local band] Shining Bird ... or [novelist, comedian and painter] Anh Do ... or any number of other visual artists that I’m friends with in the area and it’s nice.

It’s comforting to know that I have my community. In any area, there are more than one community and the circles overlap so I have friends who are surfers and friends in the surf club and friends who play football and the arts crew … but the arts crew is really the heart and soul.

How many paintings will you have at the art show?

I’m aiming for four … and I’m pretty sure they’ll all be landscape works. They’ll most likely be painted somewhere between Thirroul and Coledale and they’ll be fairly dark and moody, and, somewhere in that, there’ll be a strong powerful light coming through.

I have been painting this landscape now for 30 or more years but I can still luckily, thankfully, keep finding new ways to see and paint it.

Is your art a form of release or creation?

It covers so many different bases; you can express ideas and emotions. When you’ve had a good day

It hasn’t grown tiresome for you?

No, and my love for this place has only grown and I’ve lived here most of my life. I love living here and it just gets better and better. n The Scarborough Art Show will be held at Scarborough Public School on October 8 and 9.

Take a break Spare your eyes from screen damage with these handy tips from a local optometrist. 2515 reports.

We spend way too much time looking at screens – smartphones, iPads, laptops, PCs and TVs. The hazards range from temporary sore eyes to long-term loss of distance vision. So it’s essential to give your eyes a break.

Optometrist Nuong Turner, of Thirroul’s See Side Optical, says it’s crucial for parents to limit their children’s screen time.

“If they’re very young then you just make sure that they don’t spend more than half an hour in one go [looking at a screen] and to then spend some time outdoors.

“You’ve got to balance it with outdoors, including sunlight. It’s not just being outside and looking far away, it’s being outdoors and having sunlight as well.”

Nuong says children should spend “at least 90 minutes a day outdoors”.

“There’s been an increase in myopia, worldwide.

People lose their distance vision – they need to wear glasses to see far away.

“A lot of myopia now is due to spending way too much time doing close work, so your eyes work a lot harder, when you’re accommodating or focusing for near and when you look up, your eyes have to then de-focus to the distance.

It’s important to act early with children who are suffering from “visual stress”, Nuong says.

“If they spend a lot of time in front of a screen – and they have eye strain, headaches – catch them early, you can put in place exercises; sometimes screen glasses, which relax the ciliary muscle used for accommodation [focusing effort], and it’s

enough to allow them to then look up and not have to readjust their focus.”

For adults, limiting screen time is not always an option because many people work with screens for eight hours a day but, Nuong says, rest breaks for your eyes are quick, easy and may save you from discomfort.

“The strategy when you have a lunch break is not to use that time to catch up on your email, your messaging – avoid going to another screen. Have a conversation, or go for a walk outside.

“If you have access to a window – every 20 minutes look up, look away, relax your vision for 20 seconds. It’s the 20-20 rule; 20 minutes [of work] and 20 seconds of break.

“If they have headaches and eye strain, they really need to have their visual system assessed; some people can work for a long time without any problems; others are quite symptomatic. The main thing is not to ignore those symptoms.” n Eyezen, a new range of high-tech lenses designed to help relax your eyes while you use screens, are now available at See Side Optical, Shop 10, King Street, Thirroul. 2515

Thirroul Beach Pavilion, with its pan-fried Atlantic salmon.

Make-over magic Everything old is new again at this Thirroul trio of refurbished eateries, reports Cath Hill.

design cleverly features the original shelving, typography and pastel colour palette, a loving tribute to the cafe’s origins. We tried the “Buck Bowl” with poached eggs, pearl couscous, kale, roast cauliflower, pickled fennel and sourdough. It’s a fresh and nourishing dish with a great mix of flavours. Buck’s is licensed and open until 7pm on Thursday through to Saturday for a cheeky wine. A great addition to the cafe scene.

Thirroul Beach Pavilion, www.thirroulbeachpavilion.com.au; 0401 193 591. Mon-Sun 7am-5pm The historic Thirroul Beach Pavilion has enjoyed a makeover, complete with new cafe. It is a perfect spot to watch the rolling surf and passing parade over coffee and a bite to eat. The menu is well pitched, with many choices to suit all. We enjoyed the pan-fried Atlantic salmon with beetroot puree, watercress, shaved fennel and orange salad, quinoa and salsa verde. The Pavilion is set to become a popular function venue and is now taking bookings for end-of-year celebrations.

Christmas canapés are $25 per person (minimum 30 people). Destined to be a summer hit for locals and visitors alike.

Tanya Stubbles

COVER E FEATUR

Meet the incredible woman who is a loving mother, a fantastic artist and a brain-injury survivor. 2515 reports.

When 2515 meets Tanya Stubbles in her Thirroul studio (her garage) for our cover shoot, there’s a real buzz about her, a welcome infectious energy.

She’s busy, she’s excited, she’s ready to go: with the photo-shoot, with the interview, with her timber and metal collages, with her life.

And we can’t blame Tanya for her enthusiasm because she has an amazing story to tell, an incredible tale of a bad accident, a coma, a miraculous recovery and a bounce back into the art world which she knows so well, and loves so much.

Tanya kindly took time out of her crazy-busy schedule to chat with 2515.

Tell us what happened.

I had a fall down some stairs at an exhibition opening [at the Clifton School of Arts in November 2015] and I fractured my skull and I had an impact into my brain which caused bleeding on the brain.

I was in a coma for four weeks, intensive care unit for three months. I was in hospital for six months.

The doctor who worked with me said that my recovery was probably one of the best he’d ever seen. He [the neurologist] said it was incredible.

When you live in a brain-injury unit for that long you can see how very bad it can be, so I’ve been very lucky. I have lost my sense of smell, which I’m pretty upset about, but apparently it might come back.

Any memories of the accident?

No, I’ve got no memories of the week leading up to the accident either … obviously no memory of the coma, and the two months that followed the coma are very sketchy as well.

How are your family and friends coping now?

They’re all just happy I’m back. It was pretty hard on the family … it was probably harder on my family than it was on me. I mean they [medical staff] got my parents [Lyn and Warwick Stubbles] and my kids [Amber, Jarrah, Lotus and Taj] into

21/9/16 12:49 pm

What are your plans?

I’ve just signed a change-my-life kind of contract for a real-estate developer in Guangzhou in China: 22 artworks. I start work on it pretty much straight away.

Relishing the challenge?

Oh, yeah, this project’s really exciting because there are 22 works – all of varying sizes – but the biggest artwork is 5.5m by 3.5m, that is by far the

biggest artwork I’ve ever done, so on a creative level it’s very exciting and challenging.

Give our readers an idea of your art.

It’s timber and metal collage essentially.

What will you have at the Scarborough Art Show?

I went to Hong Kong and picked up those two [indicating two of her large works on the wall]; one of them might go in and I might have a few smaller pieces in the show.

Does this show have a special meaning for you?

Yeah, I’ve worked on the Scarborough Art Show for years; all of my children went to Scarborough school, so I volunteered on the art show, I curated it for years. It’s got a significant emotional attachment for me –and it's always a great show.

How do you feel about life now, after the accident?

After you go through an experience like that you do feel grateful for life. You don’t take things for granted; obviously I’m very happy, I’ve got four beautiful children. I think if you go through a near-death experience then you really do value life. n The Scarborough Art Show will be held at Scarborough Public School from 10am-5pm on Saturday, October 8, and from 10am-4pm on Sunday, October 9.

the [hospital] room in that first week and said: ‘Look, we don’t think she’s going to survive, you’ve got to prepare yourself, she’s going to die’.

I have died three times [2515’s photographer gasps]. It’s so weird, I know [Tanya laughs]. I died in the helicopter on the way to Liverpool Hospital.

My son said that when they took him in there and said ‘We don’t think she’s going to survive’, he said he was worried but he was like ‘Nah, it’s my mum, she’s not a quitter; she’s going to fight, she’s not going to give up’. And I have this thing, that's my little ‘Never, Never, Never give up’ [indicates a little sign with those exact words]; I’ve got that on my little mantle there – because as an artist, it’s a challenging job at times, it’s not always the easiest job – and it’s one of my things that I say, you just never ever give up – if you believe in something, you’ve just got to keep fighting for it.

So I didn’t give up on life either.

What’s hot this summer Interior decorator Jodie Gibbons picks her favourite trends, including the bohemian traveller style captivating the coast.

As the days get warmer, we start to think about making our homes more relaxed and lighter spaces to live in. Renovating and decorating can be a roller-coaster ride of emotions – exciting and fun one minute, downright stressful the next. With so many inspiring design styles out there, it’s hard to pin down the one that is right for you.

Before you decide on style, ask yourself: “How do we want this space to work, how do we want our house to feel?” Finding the right balance of function, aesthetics and consistency throughout the house with finishes is the key to good design.

Here are a few of my favourite trends for spring/ summer 2017.

I’m warming to a trend towards shiplap-style timber panelling – an alternative to plain plaster walls, bathrooms tiles or a softer look to kitchen cabinetry – painted in crisp white, deep charcoals or chalky olives and greys.

Handmade tiles in Moroccan arabesque patterns or geometrics with imperfect glazes give an artisanal quality to bathroom feature walls and kitchen splashbacks.

Still going strong in design is mixing concrete with timbers such as oak or walnut, teamed with marble and a clash of metals.

Consulting on a recent renovation, we chose matte black for all serviceable fittings, including tap ware, sinks, door handles and functional lighting.

Brass was used for the finer details, such as pendant

Local finds: Leather sling chair and Little Loom wall art at Fifty Five Parrots; bed linen at the Living Hearth.

lighting and trim details in the timber cabinetry.

The northern suburbs are full of creative talent, so consider making more meaningful choices and buying art and design locally, rather than heading off to the department store to purchase something mass-produced.

My personal favourite is Forest Co Designs; Chris Nicholson has created a beautiful walnut cabinet and American oak table for local clients. His work has a lovely organic quality, with references to mid-century and Danish design. Check out @forest_furniture on Instagram.

Invest in art. The Egg & Dart gallery and Black & Gold above Finbox have regular exhibitions showcasing local artists. Don’t pick something to match your choice of cushions; choose pieces that resonate with you and create conversation.

Stanwell Tops textile artist Julie, of Little Loom, creates beautiful textured weavings perfect for that bohemian traveller style – a very coastal trend now.

Some of her work can be seen at Fifty Five Parrots boutique in Coledale.

Fifty Five Parrots stocks an eclectic mix of Scandinavian and tribal designs. Their leather sling chairs are the perfect statement piece for any home.

Emerald green is always my colour of choice. It’s the colour of nature, harmony and balance; I love it teamed with blush and brass.

The Living Hearth in Thirroul has bed linen in muted shades of grey, olive and pink. Mix them up, add a brass bedside pendant and chunky felt rug to create a relaxed bedroom space.  Jodie runs Belljar Interiors, servicing the South Coast and Southern Highlands; 0414 672 129. 2515

Tree Day fun

Arborist Clive Woodnutt (aka Bohmer, his climbing name) took part in National Tree Day celebrations, held on July 31 in association with Planet Ark. Sue Fagan reports.

Bohmer climbed down from his home among the treetops and dressed up in a locally crafted, custom-made ‘Woodnutt The Tree Whisperer’ costume for a range of educational, fun and interactive activities at local schools and events.

The Bohmer’s Tree Care team had selected a range of young native trees from Helensburgh’s Sunrise Nursery to plant at school gardens as part of Bohmer’s ‘Tree Talk’, and gave away a few to excited students to take home.

We also took a trip – complete with our famous state-of-the-art, enviro-friendly chipper ‘The Enterprise’ – to Bulli’s Foragers Markets, to share our passion for the importance of tree care in the Illawarra environment. (Did you know tree removal is the last resort for us and that we don’t lop trees? We’d much rather keep them alive and healthy – contact us if you need help with this.)

Crazy about daisies Want to grow a field of native daisies, or have a pot needing new life? Narelle Happ advises.

In Australia, we have as many as 1000 daisy species such as Brachyscome sp., Bracteantha sp. and Rhodanthe sp. to name a few.

Our native daisies come in colours ranging from yellow, orange and red through to pink, purple and white and flower for most of the year.

History Recorded The Royal Botanic Garden Sydney reports that William Dampier collected the first Australian daisy, a Brachyscome, in 1699 from Shark Bay in Western Australia.

According to the garden’s website: “Many Australian daisies were introduced into cultivation in Europe before the middle of the 19th century and they were very popular in the colony from the 1860s until the turn of the century.

“Bracteantha bracteata (previously known as Helichrysum bracteatum) is believed to be the first cultivated Australian daisy and the first of our native plants to be hybridised.”

Growing Conditions Soil needs to be well drained and improved with compost or cow manure. Be sure to weed the area you will be planting in as weeds will rob the plants of essential nutrients and moisture as we head into the warmer months.

Water regularly down at the base of the plant, especially if windy or hot weather. Use a liquid fertiliser such as compost or worm tea or a seaweed solution every three weeks.

Once flowers finish, deadhead them to encourage new blooms.

Growing in Pots If growing in pots, use the best quality native potting mix you can buy. This will retain moisture

and create a good growing environment for the plants. Mulch the top of the pots to retain moisture and water deeply on a regular basis. Using pot feet for your pot ensures good drainage.

Pest Control Snails and caterpillars can sometimes be a problem so, for an organic approach, use crushed eggshells around the plants.

Available species:

l Bracteantha bracteata – colour range includes

yellow, orange, pink, red and white. Can be used as a cut flower. l Rhodanthe anthemoides, commonly known as Chamomile Sunray l Brachyscome spp. – ‘Mauve Delight’, ‘Radiant Magenta’, ‘Brasco Violet’.

The ‘Wild Western Australian Paper Daisy Display’ of bright pink, yellow and white flowers covers an area about the size of an Olympic swimming pool in the Connections Garden.

Brew

Before retirement Alison Russell was a corporate services co-ordinator in the treatment and rehabilitation of torture survivors. Now she brews beer, walks, cooks and paints with the same sort of intensity. Janice Creenaune reports.

At 69, Alison Russell is not about to let life slip through her fingers. She is active, adventurous and willing to be challenged in various areas. Beer brewing, however, has been a family tradition. Her bothers, her father-in-law, and Alison, have all enjoyed the process of brewing their own beer.

“We also like drinking it too”, Alison says, “but it is the whole process that I enjoy, from start to finish, and I enjoy sharing it with friends. I have heaps of beer for my brothers (who can drink quite a few), which can slow the process of good wine consumption. I’m only joking, but it has become a family concern over the years.”

Brewing beer is an ancient art, recorded in the written records of Egypt and Mesopotamia and dating back to at least the fifth millennium BC. Alison is committed to her craft. “There is a saying that you need 10,000 hours of practice before reaching potential excellence. So my beer brewing and my painting are indeed on the continuum but I am making progress and improving all the time. Well, that’s what people tell me. I share my brews around regularly.

“Most recently I have produced Morgan’s Blue Mountain and a Continental lager, but I regularly change my production line.”

Alison puts down brews in winter and summer.

“I have made a few batches this winter, but apart from electric blankets and heat mats, I can step up the process with a low temperature beer yeast in a beaker of warm water with sugar and a little lemon juice. After the ‘starter’ takes hold I drop it into the beer. From here the process needs to be slowed.

The secret is in having good-quality beer yeasts.

The low temperature yeasts take longer to brew, several weeks in fact, but the taste is far superior.”

There are risks in brewing. “One danger is if the temperature is too low,” Alison says. “The beer will cease to brew, and once the yeast drops to the bottom, nasty bugs can grow and the beer can end up as vinegar or worse. Conversely, in summer it is better to brew stout or dark beer as the hot weather is not kind to lager, which is better if brewed in winter. It can take years of experimentation.

“It is also important to bottle once brewing ceases, not before the last bubble has risen from the brew, as you don’t want the bottles to explode. A hydrometer is handy here and proper cleaning and sanitisation of bottles is, of course, essential.”

Alison admits to being “very fussy” and finishes off with boiled water to ensure no sterilisation flavour is detected.

“I also make liqueurs. Some of them are extremely potent and less often consumed. Over time they become richer.”

Alison likes to study and savour red wine.

“In fact, I would prefer it to beer. But even the knowledge of ‘good reds’ is an art in itself.”

Alison also enjoys painting, walking, gardening, cooking and reading. “My ambition of 10,000 hours of practice for each of my activities ensures I have little free time, but that does not stop me.

There is an excitement and a sense of achievement in delivering a better result each time, no matter what I am doing,” she says. n Writer Janice Creenaune is the publicity officer for the Northern Illawarra University of the 3rd Age, which hold talks in the Excelsior Room of Thirroul Community Centre, 9.30-noon every Wednesday.

Sweet as

Ever noticed in the cooler months, in temps around 10°C to 21°C, that your honey starts changing in the bottle?

Glenbernie Orchard’s Jo Fahey shares some fun facts about candied honey.

Almost all unheated, unfiltered honey will form crystals, often referred to as ‘granulation’ or ‘candy’.

It is a completely natural process. Some take years to candy, while others can become crystallised overnight. Fast candying honey usually forms fine crystals and slow ones have large coarse crystals. The crystals begin forming on small particles present in the honey, such as pollen or wax. Crystallisation does not affect the honey except for colour and texture. Crystallised honey is not spoiled and preserves the flavour and quality characteristics of the liquid honey. In fact, candied honey has been found buried in Egyptian tombs and is still edible after thousands of years! It’s a sign that you have purchased a pure honey.

What do you do with it? Do not throw it away!

Some honey users like it in this state since it is easy

to spread on bread or toast without dripping off and the taste is richer.

You can cook with it, use it in tea, glazes for meats. If you prefer your honey runny, gentle heat will melt candied honey back to its original state.

But be careful; do not use high heat, as you will destroy the pollen, propolis, enzymes, and antioxidants at high temperatures. Just sit your jar in a sunny spot or in a pot of hot water to melt it.

Candied honey can also be whipped to make a smoother texture, which is called ‘creamed’ honey.

LEMON ROAST POTATOES Ingredients 8 medium potatoes Fresh ground black pepper 1 lemon 2 tablespoons honey Method Cut potatoes in half and cook in boiling water for 5 minutes. Drain and then place potatoes into a baking dish, dot with butter, grate the rind of 1 lemon over the potatoes, add the juice of the lemon, season with ground black pepper. Drizzle with honey. Bake in oven at 160°C for 1 hour. 2515

Dr Rip’s Science of the Surf Part 2 of ‘The Sands You Walk Upon’, by Dr Rob Brander.

Last month I wrote about the origins and colour of beach sand and promised to write more this month, which generated considerable enthusiasm from readers (my neighbour), who asked why the size of the sand grains can vary along beaches. It’s a good question because the size of sand grains is an important control on how steep the beach is.

In general, coarser sand grains create steeper beaches, whereas fine sands result in flatter beaches, which will obviously affect how waves break, but that’s only part of the story. It’s really about the interactions between the local geology and the combined processes of waves, currents and wind.

In terms of sand on a beach, it’s pretty much a case of what you see is what you get. Gravel beaches are derived from the local geology (like Coalcliff) as gravel can’t move very far. Our sandy beaches have a much longer story. As the last ice age started melting away 18,000 years ago, sea level started rising rapidly – 120m to be precise – and started

bulldozing sand into the old river valleys until it stopped about 6000 years ago, creating the embayed beaches we have today.

Most of the sand is compartmentalised between headlands with little transfer between beaches and not much “new” sand is being added. During storms, fine sand is stripped offshore in a matter of days by wave and current action, leaving the coarser grains behind, creating narrower, steeper beaches.

Extended periods of normal smaller waves over a period of several months tend to bring the fine sand back, leading to wider and flatter beaches.

However, when waves hit the beach at a strong angle, they can create alongshore currents that can push finer sand towards one end of the beach.

Which end depends on the complex interactions between the configuration of headlands and rock platforms and resulting wave refraction and focusing processes.

You may think a south-east swell will push sand to the northern end of the beach, but often it’s the northern end that is most exposed and actually erodes, leaving coarser sands behind.

Wind also plays an important role as strong onshore winds can blow finer sand to the back of the beach, contributing to dune formation. Strong offshore winds can also blow this fine sand back onto the beach and surf zone, but the presence of dune vegetation can complicate this process.

Generally if you pick up a handful of dune sand, it’s the finest sand on the beach and is generally of the same size, whereas a handful of sand from the beach will come in a range of sizes due to a range of different processes acting on it.

From left: society president Ray Hall, Matthew Lloyd (with a painting by his father, Fred), and Chris Gordon-Smith, with Anne Dwyer’s work.

Paintings celebrate our heritage The Wollongong Traditional Arts Society is celebrating its 50th birthday with a special exhibition: Illawarra Past and Present. The society’s publicist, Anne Dwyer, reports.

In June 1966, seven dedicated traditional artists residing in the Illawarra met at the home of Cornelia Wheatley to create a new society – thus the Wollongong Traditional Arts Society was born.

Membership increased rapidly, so meetings were moved to the Town Hall Annex and later the Show Ground’s Lang Pavilion. Here exhibitions – formerly held in David Jones, Big W, Koala Café and Bill Lever’s Flinders Street Art Supplies – could be more easily displayed.

The popular monthly outdoor exhibitions on Belmore Basin’s lawn did not commence until the late ’60s and now annual exhibitions are held in the Old Courthouse, where Wednesday monthly meetings are also convened.

I am an exhibiting artist and member of the society. To celebrate our 50th anniversary, members have painted stunning, original paintings in oils, pastels or watercolours, depicting the history of the area, creating a unique display. To illustrate the beauty of present-day Illawarra, paintings of current local scenes will also be on show in the exhibition.

Wollongong is anticipating an exciting event: on the Sunday of our anniversary show, the cruise ship Radiance of the Seas will dock in Port Kembla for the first time. Hopefully her passengers will visit the beautiful boat harbour where we, as artists, are determined to showcase regional art.

Illawarra Past and Present runs from 9am to 5pm on Saturday and Sunday, October 29-30 in The Old Courthouse, Heritage Centre, Belmore Basin. Wollongong. All paintings will be for sale

and a percentage of proceeds donated to charity.

At 1pm on Saturday, October 29, John Shipp, president of the Illawarra Historical Society, will officially open and address the gathering, relating stories of early settlement. n For inquiries or invitations to the opening, contact Anne on 02 426 7255 or joanned@westnet. com.au 2515

Real food with Steph Stephanie Meades has a recipe for blueberry cake that is nut and dairy free, and delicious.

This has to be one of the simplest cakes to make because you put it all in one bowl and then mix it up, whack it in the oven and you’re done. It is that easy.

It also contains more healthy ingredients than traditional chocolate cake. Using spelt flour rather than refined white flour reduces the gluten content of the cake, meaning we can digest it better. And using rapadura or coconut sugar in place of white sugar is another step away from highly refined, processed ingredients typically found in sweet treats. The addition of fresh blueberries adds a lovely touch of sweetness and a nice texture, as well as an extra hit of nutritional goodness.

So take advantage of the summer berries coming into season and bake this cake. It is super delish.

CHOC BLUEBERRY BLISS CAKE INGREDIENTS: 220g white spelt flour 1 x 270g tin coconut milk 100g rapadura or coconut sugar 40g cacao or cocoa 50g desiccated coconut 120g room-temperature butter 3 eggs 1 tsp bicarb soda 1 tsp apple cider vinegar 100g fresh (or frozen) blueberries METHOD:

IN SEASON

Sweet, juicy blueberries pack a nutritious power punch. They are high in vitamin C, vitamin A, manganese, fibre and a super source of anti-oxidants. So go ahead and sprinkle some more on top of your cake.

Preheat oven to 180°C. Place all ingredients, except berries, in your mixing bowl and mix with beaters until smooth. You can sprinkle the blueberries over the top of the cake once the mixture is in the cake tin or gently fold them through the mixture in the bowl. Place mixture in a lined round or square cake tin. Bake in oven for 40 minutes or until a skewer inserted comes out clean.

Leave in the tin to cool for 10 minutes before removing. Alternatively, this makes at least 12 large cupcakes. Just reduce cooking time to 25 minutes. n For more real food recipes or advice on healthy living, visit www.lifewellnessco.com, or pop into Thirroul’s Flame Tree Community Co-op and check out the recipe folder in store. 2515

Holistic Hampers

Judi Bastin-Wagner (above right) and Jodi Lawton are the founders of Holistic Hampers, full of practical gifts for cancer patients. Judi told 2515 how it began.

“I was sitting with my mother-in-law, who was having her first chemo session for lung cancer.

The nurse was giving her important information about things she needed, like hand sanitisers, antiseptic wipes, fluoride-free toothpaste, but she might as well have been talking to herself.

“Having chemo is a weird thing as you really do go inside yourself and hide. Especially in the first session … it is so confronting. So I thought if there was a hamper with all the useful things in it, then friends could buy that and the patient could concentrate on holding it together without trying to memorise a shopping list.

“Our Chemotherapy Survival Kit is our most popular hamper, so others must think the way I do! We deliver all over the world.” Call 0417 265 570 or visit www.holistichampers.com.au. 2515

TNC’S CREATIVE QUILTERS

Scarlet Charlton and Margaret Brown, of Thirroul Neighbourhood Centre, report.

On Wednesday mornings, at the Thirroul Community Centre, the Thirroul Neighbourhood Centre hosts the Thirroul Quilters group. Some quilt, some make dolls, some crochet and some bead. They are talented and creative, and use their skills to create beautiful works of art. They also make quilts to raffle off as prizes in their ongoing fundraising efforts.

These women have a passion for helping others.

At Christmas time, instead of giving gifts to each other, they donate money to the local RFS groups. There is a strong spirit of camaraderie in the group. The quilters welcome new members. They meet at the Thirroul District Community Centre every Wednesday morning at 9am.

Meanwhile, our Youth Project has done some fine work on the Bling-A-Bra competition for Breast Cancer Awareness Month. Head on down to our Youth Project on Wednesdays and Fridays, if you’re between the ages of 11-18, or are interested in volunteering. 2515
