Description: Since settlement, this beautiful river location at Como has been a most popular place to spend leisure and free time. It was a popular holiday destination early last century, particularly for those from the bush - the river and sand being a great attraction. This leads us to the idea of using shells collected along the beach as a source of inspiration – a reference to holidays and playing in the sand.
