Sandgate Artist Studio Trail




A friend & I hit the Open Studio Trail in Sandgate (just north of Brisbane city) to check these clever artists.  I didn't take any photos of the art but the gardens did inspire.  Above are all from the one garden- so much to look at & so quirky - loved it.  Some inspiration for a quilt or 2 in the mosaics.


This garden was wonderful  & the work of artist Marie Smith & her husband.  She buys the plants & he keeps them alive & they thrive.  He's a wood carver and they share a huge shed.  It was a wonderful day & for those in the area - it's on again this coming weekend (30th & 31st) - there are flags outside the studios and a booklet is available.  Met lots of wonderful people.  A good place to start is Narcoopa Gallery in Phillips Street, Bracken Ridge.
