Congratulations to local artist Kerry Scally who took out the People’s Choice award at the prestigious Windspray Arts exhibition in Hopetoun in January 2019, for her acrylic painting called ‘Priceless’. The theme of the exhibition was the Biosphere of the Fitzgerald National Park. Kerry’s painting is a combination of the artist’s photos taken at Mason’s Bay and Starvation Bay in 2018. The painting was also purchased on the last day of the exhibition.
The following words run across the rope that ties all together:
Priceless
Our landscapes, bush, flora and Fauna are precious and thus priceless. If we lose them, they are gone forever. Beauty constantly surrounds you and awaits your discovery. Nature is full of delightful surprises. Every living creature wants to be free to live their lives as they choose. When there is no balance everything loses. After their habitat disappears, they soon follow. For endangered species we are both their greatest enemy and their greatest hope.
Words taken from the book ‘Priceless’, the vanishing beauty of a fragile planet by Bradley Trevor Greive.

- They will not put up a fight.
- They will not beg reprieve.
- They will not say goodbye.
- They will not cry out.
- They will just vanish.
- After they are gone, there will be silence.
- There will be stillness.
- There will be empty places.
- Nothing you can say will change this.
- Nothing you do will bring them back.
