David Bromley is one of the most recognisable and innovative artists in Australia. His best known are the nude female portraits and children’s series, but he often explores with various mediums and imagery that portray a certain whimsy. However diverse in his subject matter, David's work is enduringly figurative, daringly coloured and executed with a graphic intention that is striking and memorable.

Willow trees for cricket bats have been growing at Shepherds Flat for over a century. They were introduced by Test umpire R.M. Crockett in 1902 and became the primary source for the renowned Crockett cricket bats. As a tribute to this unique part of Australian history, the Tinetti family have created Cricket Willow - the only facility in the world where visitors can witness the fascinating process of cricket bat manufacture from start to finish.
