    Gidday Hoopy,

    I don't want to crash this thread, but I'm on a repeating theme at the moment: Why not find a good gallery that SELLS high end work rather than just stocking it?

    Try Lasting Impressions in Kenilworth, they are mainly a "painters" gallery but carry a few pieces of glass and wood stuff from time to time

    Randy deGraw at Witta (near Maleny) and David Linton in Maleny are both up there as well. They sell their own quality pieces as well as others on consignment, but are at the top of the middle rather than the "high" end.

    I don't know of any Queensland Gallery selling timber pieces that I'd describe as "high end", but I'll watch this thread with interest.

    Cheers,

    P

    Hoopy, If you're down near Canberra I certainly recommend the Bungendore Timber Gallery. Bungendore is a beautiful little town out of Canberra and, for me, the highlight is the timber gallery. For the rest of my artistic family, all of the other galleries are also a hit.
    Just to match the earlier 'political correctness', they stock AND sell high end work.

    Try Candlenut Gallery, Port Douglas. I sell a few boxes there. They sell "On Consignment", something I have a lot of difficulty with.

    There are also galleries at Cabargo and Central Tilba on the far south coast of NSW. The one at Cabargo is for a woodturner that works in the window and has won many awards, but I've forgotten his name. The one at Tilba sells many projects from various wood workers.

    Not sure if either would suit, or be interested, but you could give them a ring.
