FEW SUBURBS in Brisbane can boast a higher 'brand recognition' than New Farm, yet it's not widely known that this was the site of the 'new farm' worked by convicts from 1828, that the remains of 1870S lime kilns can still be seen on the river bank below Moray Street, or that Dulcie Markham, known as the "Angel of Death" because of her Sydney and Melbourne underworld notoriety, took up residence here in the 1940's.

My paintings portray a world of colour and pattern in a decorative, somewhat naïve manner with a touch of humour that imparts to the viewer a feeling that our world can be peaceful and serene. My greatest reward is to see people who view my work smile, as they frequently do!

Gladys Blundell painted 60 watercolours as a collection in 1997. She donated the collection to the Society. Some of the paintings are on display in the New Farm Library and the remainder can be viewed with the Society on request. Her inspiration came from photographic collections, research and various heritage trails through the area. Gladys has brought back to life some images of New Farm that are no longer visible.
