DENISE FAULKNER

Born in Darlinghurst and raised in Drummoyne, both inner suburbs of Sydney, Denise Faulkner was a real city girl… or so she thought. She completed a Diploma of Fine Arts at the National Art School in Darlinghurst, Sydney in 1996, and then a Degree from the same college a few years later. After a few group shows with friends she turned her back on being a professional artist, preferring to eat, and so got a job in the Gallery Shop at the Art Gallery of New South Wales. Starting as a lowly casual she rose to the dizzying heights of Book Buyer, thereby combining her two great loves, art and books. Whilst there she did many various part time and evening courses from Psychology to Jewellery Making and Creative Writing in a bid to keep her mind active... Recently, herself, her partner and their cat took the bold plunge and moved permanently to their weekender situated on a bush block with a great big mountain in the middle, just outside of Mudgee NSW, a long way removed from the city life..
