10th Anniversary

Euraba Paper Aboriginal Corporation celebrated 10 years of making handmade paper and paper artworks on Saturday 15th November 2008. From humble beginnings the dream of Euraba Paper has blossomed into a program of ongoing exhibitions around Australia and the world. People came to Euraba Paper Company in Boggabilla NSW to celebrate with the artists this milestone occasion.and took part in the collaborative mural by puting their handprint on the wall of the papermill.

« Back

Thelma was born in Goondiwindi on the 15th of April in 1964. She enjoys making paper and creating her artworks in any media. Thelma says "I come from a family of two, and I have four kids of my own." Thelma's mother, Stella O'Halloran, was a founding member of the Euraba Paper Company and Thelma has followed in her mothers' footsteps, being handed over the position of chief rag cutter when Stella retired. Their drawing styles and subject matter are uncannily similar, with a distinctive sketchy mark making in both of their work.
