CHARIS CHANG
HUNTERS Hill Council’s cocktail party on Cockatoo
Island was a great success – hopefully raising more than
$100,000 towards the restoration of the historic Priory.
More than 350 tickets to the event last Friday night
were sold at $150 each.
Revellers were ferried out to the island, which is being
opened to the public by the Sydney Harbour Federation
Trust after spending some $60million renovating and
remediating the island and its buildings.

Orange Paintings:
Orange paintings 1 & 2 Acrylic on canvas 2006
$450 Each
I am using orange as a representation of divine love, an emblem of permanence and a symbol of fidelity. It is an expression of constancy, conquering and extinguishing the flames of passion. There are drips of tears over the woman’s orange breast and belly that has become a circular shape, as Jesus has filled her with his constant love and fidelity. He cries for her too with tears of gold and red. This is His sacrifice and his mourning for her as he prophesies about the end times when times will be difficult for her. The purple surrounds are his Kingship in her life, completely surrounding her.

Tribute to Ted Marr Sr by Ted Marr Jr
"Wilcannia, his home for over 60 years and the place he loved most and where he was always happiest. The Darling River, beside the homestead, was high and running robustly for the first time in years, and Ted & Vicky enjoyed a walk along the river bank that morning, where they were delighted to see that Ted's cattle looked fit and were benefiting from a much improved season after several years of drought. He was, as we say these days, in a very good place, and we can truly say that his life was rich and fruitful to the last.
You will miss him terribly, but be happy for him. There is no death."
