Description

Although the Bald Man has been expecting inclement weather for some time, he is often ill-prepared and ill-attired for the climatic conditions that assail him ...Christopher Orchard is the creator of the Bald Man, a stoic little character the artist has been drawing and redrawing for decades. Orchard's apparently effortless art is built on a commitment to rigorous studio practice, while as an educator, he has helped shape many careers. In Christopher Orchard: The uncertainty of the poet, we gain an insight into the influence of a man who is one of Australia's finest artists working today.
