Deanne Palmer I like when a place gives me a good sense of connection to the world and my current work is a response to the unique and intriguing energies and rhythms of the ocean. My goal is to see beyond the obvious beauty and become immersed in the view of the deeper details, the ever-changing characteristics of the sea, it’s surface and surroundings. I work with encaustic for its translucency, fluidity and immediacy and it seems the perfect medium to explore the layers of conscious connection to sense of place. ‘I n y a d d a’ ‘Golfcourse Reef‘ Encaustic, pigment & shellac Encaustic, pigment & shellac on cradled wood panel on cradled wood panel 23x 30.5 cm 23 x 30.5 cm $250 $250

• Fiona Johnson Tenacious Pea – Sturt's Desert Pea Ink & Charcoal on paper 76cm h x 47cm w Price : $ 715.00 This drawing celebrates the survival of the Sturts Desert Pea in the harsh Australian Desert. The intense colours and beautiful shape we were what attracted me to this flower. Fully Framed in tassie oak • Navigating the Storm Mixed Media on Canvas 60cm x 60cm Price : $700 This work was created during the storm of Covid 19. It explores the freedom of flight even in the stormiest of conditions. I think I channeled my wish for more freedom into this work as I moved through my mixed media process of laying down transparent layers.
Holly Mahoney About The Artist: Holly Mahoney is a Sydney-based visual artist known for figurative and landscape works on paper and canvas. Holly holds a BA in Visual Art (Painting & Drawing) from the University of Ballarat and is a Finalist this year in the prestigious Gallipoli Art Prize. Her work often creates an emotive response to the movement, colour and light captured in her gestural marks that take the viewer on a journey as to how she interprets the world. Holly strives to imbue each mark with a sense of optimism and honesty. The series of paintings for Art for Air are based on the exploration of the coast, shoreline and rockpools of the Northern Beaches - a vast source of natural inspiration on Sydney's door stop. Holly's art playfully uses colour and light to encourage the viewer to reflect and immerse oneself.

Lisa Shaw I enjoy an artistic approach to Landscape Photography and use an impressionistic style to capture the emotion and colours of our coastline. Inspired by the rich sense of place found amongst Sydney’s Northern Beaches, I explore the moods of the sea and our emotional connection to it. Looking through the camera's lens, the boundary between what is normally seen dissolves into a painted world of light, feeling and colour. My photography process is kept as natural as possible with all images created in-camera using the beauty of natural light and minimal post-production. To compliment the painterly-style, images are printed on 320gsm archival cotton paper and framed with a solid timber frame, conservation matboard and anti-reflective, UV protective glass
Susan Patrick Artist Statement: As an abstract artist my paintings are influenced by the natural environment And its transformation through the seasons. These abstract landscapes were inspired by the recent devastating bushfires. Glow of the new growth - NFS Morning Light $590 Midday Light $590
Jemima Carroll I would love to take credit for this work, but I am nothing but the scribe. A lot of poets will describe the 'catching' of inspiration and putting it down on the page before it vanishes, and I can relate. My process is entirely intuitive, and much like life, lived forwards and understood backwards. I’ve doodled for as long as I can remember and in the last 18 months sketchbook studies have been developing. During our 2020 Covid lockdown I fell into a snail mail frenzy and included my own doodles encouraging my pen friends to try on some mindful colouring. It wasn’t long before Rachel, my artist sister, challenged me to doodle bigger. I protested, as stockpiling large works doesn't suit my rolling stone lifestyle. That said, I thoroughly enjoyed my time in the studio creating 'Still and All' and 'Stock and Scion', my first ever BIG doodles. ‘Big Doodles’ may have to be the title of my first solo exhibition. There’s a playfulness to calling the work I do 'doodles' and that’s very intentional, sometimes we have to trick ourselves into taking creative risks - I know I do. Still and All - Because even when we're still, we're so much more than that. Our neurons, cells, bacteria and thoughts are always firing and sometimes things get a little complicated and, well, dirty.
Tania Murphy Artist Statement My research expands historical human markings to contemporary sculptural form. Exploring a material, such as Clay, and its possibilities to finished form allows me to overlap the historical with the present. Clay represents nature, mother earth, primitive culture, domestic life, and endless presentation of human existence. Bodies of clay connect one to a region on this earth, a place of matter, a dig or a deposit. My ceramic art works are collective symbols of life that respond to the environment from where they transpired. unomi_design unomi.com.au
Working with acrylic and mixed media, Cass’s art process is free, fluid and intuitive. Inspired by cloudscapes, movement, the ocean and spiritual teachings, Cass enjoys creating large scale works that encourage feelings of expansiveness and freedom and energy. She leans into her intuition to create unplanned, expressionistic works which act as a mirror to the beautiful chaos of life. She lets her unconscious and the behaviour of the paint guide her in the present moment to create unexpected resolutions on the canvas. Any ‘mistakes’ during her process are worked into the piece, to create something perfectly imperfect.

Marta Madison About the piece: One of the skills I mastered during my career as a fashion illustrator, is shading the human form with dark and light colours. Pastel offers endless ways to combine colours and show form through shading. This was a wonderful exercise for my mind, pushing me to see what isn't there by using the blue background to bring out the hat and skin of the model. I enjoy the interaction between sunlight and shadow, employing the complementary colours blue/purple and yellow/orange to give the sunny feel of this picture. This simple palette creates striking contrasts.

Frances Dawe Trained in Industrial Design (Bach. Ind.Design UTS) and honoured early in her career as an award-winning designer in the SMH Young Designer of the Year ‘Bright Ideas’ Competition. Frances Dawe developed her discipline in painting alongside other mediums until the lure of a full-time art practice overwhelmed all other interests. Between 2001 and the present Dawe has exhibited nationally at Falls Gallery, Oxford Falls, the Neale Joseph Fine Art Gallery a well as being honoured with; The Adobe People’s Choice Award at the 2004 Propeller Art Prize, Darlinghurst; as well as Runner Up People’s Choice Award in the Great Southland Art Prize 2003. Her work is held in private collections including, Andrew and Nicol Forrests, Fortescue Metals Group and Minderoo Foundation, Belle Property Mosman, Riskflo Technology. Dawe uses the term the art of the open spaces to describe the dual role of landscape in her work. The first is an open terrain without physical boundaries, the second is the genre itself ever unfolding within Australian contemporary art. Geology, social history, primal scenery, natural pigment, texture and the shifting qualities of light have all been engaged in Dawe’s work.

Pam Booth I always find inspiration in nature, the landscape here and around the world fascinates me and I can see a painting everywhere I look. Colours and beautiful shadows, light on water, rock formations and shapes draw me in, and I take hundreds of photographs wherever I am. I have a lifetime of reference!

As a new - comer to painting, the learning curve is steep – yet rewarding. Being a country girl initially I am drawn to painting landscapes of the country, sheep , gates, roads -trees, they tend to evoke a sense of peace in me…mostly! My teacher inspires me in a gentle way “OK you have done that painting -now extend and do two more in a different way –“ That’s fine with me Susan Ogilvie susan.ogilvie@bigpond .com 0412188650 Susan Ogilvie
