Autumn 2004

Autumn has begun and the last 6 months have been a whirlwind of development and interest.
After such a successful 4 days at the Perth trade fair "Design Edge", I decided to attempt the "World Boutique" Trade Fair Jan 12th - 16th 2004. It was such a boost to have 4 days of interest from other countries. China television, radio interviews, media every where and Austrade and the Australian embassy played an enormous part in making these four days extremely successful for all eleven of us Aussies. It was a pleasure to also meet some very friendly Kiwis who were promoting there wine at the trade fair, and they were more than generous with wine and cheese samples :)
I also have a new media section on my website; please take time to have a look.
Prior to the World Boutique Trade Fair in Hong Kong, I was involved with the Perth Festival events. Starting with the Deckchair production of "Midsummer Nights Dream" designed by Zoe Atkinson and followed with Barking Gecko's "His Majesty's New Clothes" designed by Lou Westbury at His Majesty's Theatre, then Spare Parts Theatre's "H20" designed by Cecile Williams and then Barking Gecko's festival show "Hidden Dragon" designed by Lou Westbury.
After Hong Kong, as I disembarked from the flight, there was a pleasant job driving and wardrobe for "Metallica" with the big day out.
This year of the cheeky monkey will keep me (the ox) on my toes.
I plan to be even more diverse this year, and to attend another trade fair, possibly China next time.
Thanks to everyone for all of their support.

Cherie Hewson.
