While compiling catalogue and biography details for an upcoming exhibition, I realised my first show with Kym Bonython at BONYTHON GALLERY - ADELAIDE was 34 years ago. I still remember the nervous 22 year old I was back then, dealing with one of the great characters of the art world, he was kind and generous and supportive, and without his advice and encouragement I dont think I would be where I am today. God bless him.
