Manager for a day



The HUGE bus 4 wheel drive - Ken Duncan is the man in the black with the grey hair.


Gary and Chris have gone into alice springs to see the Dr so I opened the art centre today so that the artists can finish up any paintings that they want to submit to Desert Mob.

The tour was intresting. Ken Duncan the landscape photographer brought a group of people on his photography tour into the centre - to buy work and to take photos of the artists - there were about 15 or so of them and it was all a bit crazy - all of them crammed in the ladies painting shed clicking away - people are very keen to get their photo taken with the artist - espically the artist and the painting together.
There was a lot of crazy clicking away - I'm not sure if it annoyed the ladies. Many of them are elderly and don't speak english very well but also many people here are shy so probably wouldn't say anything even if they were upset.

Still getting to know all the artists and knowing names and how people are related. It's tricky!
