Demonstrations 2021

20 March 2020
Leanne Jones Modern Watercolour with Extras. For this demonstration I will be using Watercolour with Mixed Media. In the demonstration I will show how to create a landscape with Watercolours, Ink, Oil Pastels and Collage. I will bring along some completed works and several works in progress to show how these materials work together to create a painting with interesting textures, light and glowing colour. Watercolour is a very versatile medium that can be used with a variety of different materials to create interesting subject matter. It can be used on quality watercolour paper as well as canvas which is a different way to present your work, which is something I enjoy creating. |

April 17 - Joseph Bezzina - Acrylic Landscapes
Joseph has won the UTA Paint Your Way to Paris, Wagga Wagga Art Prize, North Sydney Prize and Camberwell Rotary Prize. He has received the Royal Art Society Medal of Distinction twice and the Thora Ungar Memorial Award. Joseph has also exhibited as a finalist in major art prizes such as Mosman, Salon des Refuses, Paddington, Mount Eyre Vineyard Prize and the NSW Parliament Plein Air Prize in 2008, 2009 and 2010.
"My attachment with the landscape has always presented me with a rich source of subject matter. What has changed with my artwork over the years is more about the isolation, colour and the underlying lines and shapes that run through our landscape. When I paint en plein air, it reinvigorates the mind to see and capture, in a more fleeting way, the light, atmosphere and movement in the land before me.
What art means to me can best be summed up by Piet Mondrian who said, "The position of the artist is humble. He is essentially a channel."
June 19 - Jan Cristaudo - Abstraction
Jan Cristaudo lives on the Pittwater Peninsular among Sydney’s beautiful northern beaches.
This idyllic location, together with her frequent travels, provides an endless source of inspiration.
The use of colour is her preferred method of expression and she has a distinctive style using oils on canvas to interpret the subjects that
inspire her. Jan’s paintings are held by individual and corporate clients.
