These three paintings reflect the history, charm and rusticity of this fascinating inner suburb of Newcastle.

With the sun shining down on the architecture of yesteryear, life goes on. There is still the need to get the washing dry, a place to park the bins. There’s the sign to remind you not to stop here, and a cat or three passing by. Owners have come and gone. Memories are left behind. Such small plots of ground but so much going on, in what is someone’s place they call “home”.
