My Awesome Australian: Online exhibition

Kate Miller-Heidke Zero Gravity by Eleanor (8-11 years, ACT)

Drawing, Collage materials and bubble wrap background
Kate Miller-Heidke Zero Gravity
I’ve drawn Kate Miller-Heidke performing at Eurovision. She was pushed onto the stage while sitting on a big flexible pole which she swung around on. Her song was “Zero Gravity”. I chose Kate Miller-Heidke because she’s my favourite Australian singer and I’ve actually got a CD of some of her songs. If I could give her an award it would be the Best Australian Singer award.
