and conduct workshops for children.

Steve
Bundred's work is also featured at the gallery, he works with Wooden
intarsia (the art of 3D wooden pictures). Steve has been living
in Queensland, Australia since he left engineering 25 years ago.
Always
on the look out for new ideas, a chance meeting on an overseas trip
in 1993 introduced him to intarsia.
Fired
with enthusiasm he returned home, got together with a talented graphic
designer and has been producing original timber artwork from his
well-equipped bush workshop.
