Grade 4 student Gino has a lot of artistic talent. He draws imaginary creatures in ordinary situations such as this “Rhino” who is casually watching TV. Small details , such as the shoes tossed onto the floor, come naturally to Gino. When I asked him whether he’d mind his work being published he said that would be fine but to please ask that Blog visitors respect his original work. Congratulations Gino on your creativity and drawing skills. Australia and the Philippines are proud of you.
I was born in Bendigio, Victoria, Australia and attended a 13 student Rural School, Muskerry East Primary. I was a boarder at Girton CEGGS in Bendigo for my seconday Schooling.I trained at Bendigo and Coburg Teachers Colleges before beginning teaching in Melbourne in 1975. I taught a variety of Primary classes before beginning Art teaching in 1986. I am currently in my 26th year of teaching Visual Arts and my 24th year at Taylors Lakes Primary School which is in outer north-west Melbourne, Australia. I am married with three children and outside teaching am a keen member of Rotary International. Besides my passion for Art I have keen interests in photography, travel and in Learning Technologies.

Dear Mr and Mrs Ninon,
Congratulations upon raising such a creative and wonderful son as Gino. It is great that you have encouraged his passion for drawing. It was my pleasure to post his work and I’m sure that I will post more in the future. I am so pleased that you made the Blog comment. I am hopeful that more students will show the Blog to their parents and that they will also comment.
Very Best Wishes and Thanks for taking the time to write,
