Born in St Kilda, Rupert Bunny was one of the most successful expatriate artists of his generation; indeed no other Australian achieved the critical acclaim nor enjoyed the artistic affiliations which Bunny experienced in Paris in the decades around the turn of the century. #NGV – at Melbourne, Victoria

Mental Health Unmasked. I love the results of this collaboration between our school counselors and Mrs DeCaro’s art classes. You can’t always judge a person’s #mentalhealth by how they look or act - here’s what mental health looks like when people take off their mask.
