Heather has graciously provided an artist's statement to accompany the artwork:

Brave Voices is a tribute to some of the ordinary members of our community who do extraordinary things for us voluntarily. The CFA volunteers show great courage when they protect us from fire. David Clee is one of many brave firefighters in our region. He has been a volunteer for 30 years. Pauline Muirhead is 92. She continues to work to make life better for others, and was awarded female volunteer of Shepparton for 2011. Jamie Lea is proud of Shepparton and works hard to make it a positive place for other young people. Mark Atkinson has been training football players at Rumbalara for about 15 years and supports young players in whatever way he can. All of these people stand up for other people in the community and make Shepparton a better place for us all.

We thank Heather for her artistic efforts and the fantastic image she has provided for the 2012 SheppARTon Festival.
