Trains, Cranes and Ships

A couple of months after the exodus of the wharfies, I held a major solo exhibition about my paintings of the last years of the East Darling Harbour Wharves. It was an exhibition on a grand scale,  comprising 110 paintings hung in 3 large rooms, the Annie Wyatt room, the boardroom and the foyer at the Sydney headquarters of the National Trust (NSW) on Observatory Hill.
