I am most interested for two reasons; I am a practising artist based in Victoria Australia and so appreciate your gallery; it invites art to be shown, I should say that it needs to show art. The second reason is that my forebear, a Hoban, was born in 1835, lived in Carlow, left Carlow and sailed on ship to arrive here in 1853, he owned and milked dairy cows, built a terrace of cottages in Lennox Street, Richmond, Melbourne, Victoria, built and owned a hotel he named The Royal Mariner in Lennox Street Richmond Melbourne, then owned another hotel The Grace Darling, on Smith Street, Collingwood, Melbourne, Victoria. That history could be refreshed and continued by me showing a painting or two in a Group show or something that you thought appropriate.. I am currently building a blog named bartlettart.blogspot.com and have a Web page www.johnbartlett.com.au What do you think of all that?
