Brooke Thompson




Lives in Sydney but often draws in the bush by a water source; a pond, swamp, creek or river. And when that is not possible, the harbour or ocean become sites from which drawings and etchings germinate. Currently studying Masters of Art at the College of Fine Arts, University of New South Wales. Graduated with honours in drawing at the National Art School in 2005.
