    Q Weekend Magazine recently featured the story “Shot on Site” which is about Brisbane born and educated painter Robert Brownhall.

    Because of my retail background, I was drawn to this story by Jade Warne, featured in the Shop til you drop magazine, which I have temporarily stolen from my daughter, who has never forgiven me for leaving the retail industry. Why do clothes cost what they do? How do you know if the price is…
