Kate Websdale works with a number of different artistic mediums and a variety of styles. Kate spends time drawing a painting proposal before she allows her instincts to drive
the painting process. She often uses acrylics, but will also dabble in watercolours and oils. She also uses charcoal and
collage at different times. Kate enjoys living and playing with her art at Tin Can Bay, and finds the broad scope of
visual references in this peaceful setting nourishing to her creative energy.

AuroraRoseVintage RebeccaBAKER
298 Calico Creek Road, Calico Creek
Aurora Rose Vintage is the inspiration of artist Rebecca Baker. For Rebecca, felting has become one of her greatest passions.
She finds the ancient textile craft meditative, magical and enchanting. It is an artistic medium which Rebecca finds
constantly challenging and with endless possibilities, both simple and complex. Rebecca has spent most of her working
life in the beauty and fashion industries and these experiences have enabled Rebecca to give to others, and she now uses
felting to express who she is and
what inspires her, through the medium of beautiful,
handcrafted, vintage styled
items.
Open 10am–4pm during the Studio Trails weekends.
