Elizabeth Doidge CV

Although I choose to live in rural South Australia, since 2000 all my work has been sold in Melbourne. Prior to starting work on the constructions in April 2009 I only produced an average of 8 works a year and in order to exhibit on a regular basis, I was unable to enter more than one competition annually, or to show at more than one gallery.
