Profile
Georgette was born in Egypt of British parents and educated privately in London, where early signs of artistic talent were noted. Later on Georgette was offered a bursary to Art College but this was not to be as her interests were more artistic than academic. Georgette pursued the course of open classes at the National and other galleries, and has travelled extensively in pursuit of her interests. Her artistic studies were enhanced by tutelage from various independent professional artists. Her sculptures have sold into private and company collections throughout Australia and in 8 overseas countries. Prizes and commendations have been awarded from numerous art festivals and exhibitions across Australia.
Georgette has made Australia her home and has been sculpturing in Brisbane since 1975. Currently she is a member of the Brisbane Sculpture Society. She also taught sculpture at Moreton Institute of TAFE. Examples of her sculptures are in the collections of a number of private collectors as well as at Ormiston College and various Art Galleries.
