PRESIDENT

Jennifer Wright (Summers) BSc, MEdSt, DipVisA brings knowledge from careers in science, education, editing, film and television to her art practice. Her art celebrates life on our planet and lightens problems with humour. From an early age Jennifer painted, sculpted, worked with fabrics and constructed artists' books. After visiting leading and smaller galleries around the world, she developed her grandparent's Toowoomba cottage into a studio. Jennifer was an Avant Gardener for the 2007 and 2008 Carnival and has exhibited and sold works in Toowoomba, Brisbane, Crows Nest (where she was born) in Australia and London, Oxford and the USA.

VICE-PRESIDENT

Kim Besley Scott

TREASURER

Pixie Roediger
My early years were spent on our family property near St. George where I was a Jillaroo untill I married. My husband had a wheat property near Meandarra. After selling this we moved to Toowoomba where we have run a retail business in Toowoomba for nearly thirty-five years. I enrolled in a visual arts degree in 2001 and completed this degree in 2003, majoring in painting and print making. My interests are painting, creative sewing, mosaics and gardening.
