Soldiers eating in the mess, Robertson Barracks, Darwin
Description
Australian soldiers eating in the mess, Robertson Barracks, Darwin. 'I want to try and show what it's like being over there, where they sleep, what they do, what they eat, what they do in their spare time ... We've seen a lot of film footage but there's something unique about drawing and painting because it's quite personal.' Wendy Sharpe, `The Australian', 9 December 1999.
