Summary |
The extraordinary success of Anne Green's first sketch-book, 'Not to be Trusted' - now in its Third edition in the space of only three years - led Boolarong Publications to immediately commission her for a further series of her exquisite compassionate drawings of Australia's heritage. With Brisbane the subject of both that book and its sell-out sequel 'Held in Trust', Anne Green that turned her attention to the Gold Coast as it was in the days of crinolines and bathing boxes and researched and produced her outstanding 'Drawn to the Coast' launched at a Gold Coast civic function earlier this year. The choice of Melbourne as the first of her Inter-State subjects is a fascinating one and 'In Trust' is destined to equal, if not outstrip the success of Anne Green's earlier books, with her instinctive love of the history of Australia's premier city echoed in each finely detailed drawing. These, in the main, are reproduced life size. With the aid of authentic National Trust classifications 'In Trust' makes fascinating reading as well as providing a superb collection of outstanding drawings. Anne's biography, recorded in both 'Artists and Galleries of Australia and New Zealand' and 'Australian Artists Today', gives some insight into the background and skills of this quite remarkable young woman.
