Turning heads

This is Desert Pea our new bovine masterpiece at the entrance to Clover Hill

and this is internationally renowned Australian artist Peter Griffen

and this is Peter painting “Desert Pea” at the Sydney Royal Easter Show in 2008 as part of the Art4agriculture  “Picowsso Art in the Park Exhibition”

and this is Desert Pea four years later gazing over the rolling green hills and the “sea for miles view” at her new eco gallery home. 

As you can imagine she is turning a few heads.

On behalf of the Clover Hill Dairies team I would like to say a big thank you to Peter Griffen and his gorgeous wife, the equally talented Denise Lithgow who I had the pleasure of spending five days with a the show whilst Peter with Denise on hand lovingly created Desert Pea. BTW There is a great story behind the name see Peter on Landline here http://www.abc.net.au/landline/content/2008/s2670983.htm

Peter Griffen and Denise Lithgow ham it up at the Sydney Royal Easter Show – two wonderful Australians doing wonderful things in the community. We salute you both
