Typescript and photocopies of three drawings. The typescript is entitled Gatecrashing the hermitage: at home and abroad with Ian Fairweather. It describes Lindsay Arnold's unannounced visit to the home of Australian painter Ian Fairweather, on Bribe Island in 1973. Arnold also visited the next day seeking to paint the artist's portrait, but instead did a drawing. The three photocopied drawings are: 1. A reduced photocopy of the pencil drawing of Fairweather, sketched by Arnold on the second visit as described in the typescript; 2. A biro and coloured felt tipped pen drawing of Fairweather's bark studio/house, seen from above, during the possum and butcher bird invasions he described to Arnold; 3. A coloured photocopy of a painting of Fairweather, which Arnold did in 1994 based on photographs. Added to the collection is a book of sketches of Ian Fairweather and his Bribie Island home. Also, correspondence and an album entitled 'Run fun fuss and fume', containing 'various and diverse writings and meanderings'
