Lillian Tebesceff, Artist of the Month - February - Dayboro Art Gallery

Lillian Tebesceff is the Artist of the Month for February at the Dayboro Art Gallery . Winner of many Art awards, locally and interstate, Lillian is teaching 'Art for Pleasure' at Kings Cottage, on behalf of the Pine Rivers U3A and at the Dayboro Art Gallery. Originally a subject teacher (16yrs NSW Catholic System) then a lecturer (psychology etc...) she has been involved with art both professionally and as a hobby throughout her life. Lillian has studied in Europe and Australia and actively belongs to local and interstate Art Groups, Galleries and Committees. Lillian's art is an extension to self expression, it's coming in many moods....and evident in her work.
Dayboro had its share of flooding too as the township lies within a valley northwest of Brisbane and therefore it didn't escape the torrential downpour that occurred on the 11th of January. Fortunately, the water subsided as soon as the rain stopped.
As you can see by the line drawn on the white wood in the picture, the waterline rose quite high but despite this, most of the art was unaffected due to some quick actions of members earlier in the day.
