One of many happy memories from our Art
Vault residencies/exhibitions (which officially end today) is the evening Shane and I spent with Anne Spudvilas. Her house is in nearby
Wentworth, which is situated at the junction of the Murray and Darling Rivers. Chez Spudvilas is a
singularly special place. Upon our arrival Anne made martinis, which she
served in elegant green art deco glasses. We sipped them by the river’s edge, savoring
the taste and the view before going inside to enjoy the fabulous meal Anne had
prepared for us.

Anne is a former Art Vault artist in
residence, who fell in love with the area - and stayed. Her experiences are
documented on her blog
Another Year on the River, which you can find on the
right of this blog under Favourite Blogs. Alternatively, you can visit it
