Finally the time has rolled round to hang the paintings at Bondi Pavilion. Packed the car with paintings and begun what I knew would be an arduous day. Luckily Francesco and David are tall and strong. As I am no use except to give an opinion as to where something should hang and how. Eventually after 5 hours, it was done and Frank proceeded to ring his contact Robyn at the Wentworth Courier.
Prior experience in getting free publicity has not been successful. My experience is persistence is key. Frank has done marvellously to get a journalist to print a small notice and then to attend. So here we were, hot sweaty and dusty and Robyn wants to photograph us. After which Frank managed to sell her a painting so well done team, got a red dot before opening night!
