’We need a governess’, came the cry and Lyn Barnes headed west to Quilpie. So began a love affair with South West Queensland. While Lyn says she was not a good governess, she loved the life and said the 70’s were a great time to be working on properties in the region, ‘the social life was fantastic’.Lyn always drew but it was the establishment of the Quilpie Cultural Society that got her painting and teaching art across the region. And guess what, she really does know the Betoota Advocate boys and painted a great picture of the now thriving Betoota pub.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
