SUMMARY:Christmas Lunch. Guest speaker is Geoff Potter
DESCRIPTION:Geoff will be speaking about Ethel Agnes Waddell the artist.\nEthel Agnes Waddell (1865 – 1937) was one of seven children and raised on the family property of “Benvenue” Singleton, NSW. An affluent family, the Waddells were established members of the Maitland community, and afforded Ethel the ability to travel and paint.  Ethel was a prolific painter who established relationships with many of her artistic contemporaries, among those were Julian Ashton, Sydney Long, Norman Lindsay, Isabel McWhannell, and Squire Morgan.\nHer diaries contain personal entries and drawings by these artists and other known early C20th artists. Ethel settled in Avoca where she became an active member of the Avoca township, and frequently hosted fellow artists and painting classes (some hosted by Julian Ashton) at her Avoca residence. The surrounding scenery inspired some of the iconic imagery created by Julian Ashton and Sydney Long. Despite her active involvement in the art world and an active patron, little is known about Ethel beyond a few biographical details and council records. She never exhibited her works publicly but often donated paintings to fundraising events.  (Art Sales Digest, John Furphy).\n        Backyard Cottage Scene, C 1917\n
