Let's Talk Art Blog

The Brunswick Street Gallery in Melbourne hosts this wonderful small works show and art prize annually. Such an amazingly diverse collection of small works are always submitted and on display for the duration of the exhibition.

There were so many buyers lined up outside the door on sale day this year, there weren't enough hours in the day to get all the collectors through the doors and with over 1,400 artists contributing over 3,500 artworks to the show, this year's event was huge! Remaining art works are now up for grabs in the online sale, so make a cuppa and have a browse.

This year I'm taking part in the Incognito Art Show, a fundraiser for Studio A in Sydney that supports professional development for artists with intellectual disabilities. Over 3400 donations have been received from participating artists around Australia. The sale of these works is an in-person event, being held this year at, 2 Lacey Street, Surrey Hills, doors open at 8 am on Saturday 18th June.

To be selected as a finalist this year was really an honour, the calibre of work on show was simply stunning and wonderfully diverse, from prints to ceramics, paintings, photographs and sculptures. 'Rustlers' found it's way through the undergrowth to celebrate the biodiversity of our region and wave the flag for our beautiful Blue Tongue lizards, which go quietly about their business without making a fuss, rustling carefully through the leaf litter in the back gardens and bus

What a lovely surprise! My painting Rustlers has been selected as a finalist in the Caloundra Regional Gallery's Local Artists - Local Content Art Prize 2022. This is the first year I've entered an artwork in this competition run by the friends of the gallery.

This upcoming exhibition by members of Arts Connect Inc promises to be a diverse show with work from local Sunshine Coast Artists, including two pieces from my Distillation Series, considering the themes of Truth, Healing & Prophecy. The gallery is open 9.30 am to 3.30 pm daily.
