My past exhibition “Beach to Bush” was held at Gatakers Artspace, Maryborough in Gallery 2 Ground floor, from March 12th – May 2nd 2021.
My original artworks have been split into categories of Beach (Marine Life, Seascapes) and Bush (Bush Animals, Landscapes) and a silent auction.
This part of the exhibition is a collection of animals, reptiles and birds that I have found at the beach or rivers. With the exception of the penguin that was photographed in Sydney Zoo but can be found on the coast of Australia.
I have decided to create some Arches watermark exclusive paintings, this a painting that has the Arches watermark embossed in one corner of my artworks. This will guarantee I'll make no other copies of this artwork on greeting cards or limited edition prints, apart from social media photos. Hopefully this will be a feature of my exhibitions, limit two watermarked paintings per exhibition.
A collection of beach scenes from my trip around Queensland and a friends Scottish sea urchin I just had to paint.
This part of the exhibition is a collection of animals, reptiles and birds that I have found while driving around Australia. Some animals have been sourced from the zoo as they are difficult to photograph or approach in the wild.
This part of the exhibition is a collection of landscapes that I have come across while driving around Australia in the past few years.
