It is not happy people who’re grateful; but grateful people who’re happy.

Being grateful for the little things in life is the secret to flourishing and fulfilment.

Dr Tim Sharp - The Happiness Institute

Thank you...

to all the artists who shared their art & stories, to all our generous supporters and to our judges Belynda Henry, Anne Masters and Maria Stoljar

This scene, domestic and personal, is simply some garden flowers, freshly picked, on a table belonging to a dear friend.

Sunlight streams in. These are little things, but beautiful things.

Quartet - Sarah White Finer With Age - Alisha Gore

To me, the great gift of art is that it allows us to see the beauty in all things. Little things, broken things, imperfect things

- like these leaves.

The beauty in what is natural, in both age and wear, is epitomised by this single dried rose.

Yellow is my favourite colour – sunshine, lemons, buttercups and bananas – my many loves. Yellow is joyful, warm and playful and

I hope these qualities translate in this work.

Roofs at The Rocks - Catherine Boardman Magic Morning - Vicki Ratcliff

From the Harbour Bridge walkway, the rhythm of the roofs at The Rocks - sunlight and shadow - always makes me happy.

Each morning the ‘Buckettes’ take a swim in the sea and celebrate the new day. I am so grateful to share this joy with such amazing

and resilient women.
