November 1998, solo exhibition entitled October 2001, solo exhibition entitled May 2004, solo exhibition entitled Medium: Tina concentrates on watercolour because she finds that it best suits her style and her interests. She likes to paint as the impressionists did “en plein air”; that is , on location, to be able to catch the mood of the moment. As she does a great deal of bushwalking this medium enables her to take the materials with her and to complete a painting in a day or half a day wherever she sets up camp. If the weather is too bad for walking , she is able to take a spray of leaves or flowers from the ground around the site and spend the time sketching or painting this subject.
