Remia Montayre Homuk is originally from the Philippines town of Sindangan, Zamboanga del Norte. After moving to Sydney in 1984, she married and continued to follow her clear artistic destiny.
This lady is a natural artist. She was born with the artistic gifts that she has nurtured and developed. She began to draw human faces and forms at the age of three, and her talent grew with her through childhood.
At the tender age of 15, Remia was commissioned to sculpt the Holy Family for a private collection.

Born in Amsterdam in the Netherlands and raised in Cairns in Far North Queensland, Ludij Peden has seen her share of contrasts during her life’s journey.
It's MY Turn
Being a teacher, mother, business woman and active community member wasn’t enough for this artist, who decided that she also needed to follow her artistic ambitions.
