Influences from Greenland, Central Europe, Outback Australia and South West Rocks have intensified Gwen's love of art and painting since 2012. Gwen works mostly with acrylics and soft pastels. She creates artworks from her own photography using her freehand skills.
Gwen's artwork is realistic/representations with impressionistic insights. Through loving to tell a story, she keeps her artwork alive and honest.
Experience with a wide range of themes from icescapes, landscapes, seascapes to human and animal portraits (and many more), have resulted from Gwen tutoring workshops for 11 years. Gwen has won awards at art shows and successfully sells her artwork. "When the story of my artwork melds with the story of its audience, then my artwork is complete." Gwen Bullock Art.
Kath Riley, mixed media artist from the Mid North NSW Coast is holding her latest exhibition.
“Let’s face it as artists, be it musical, literary, painter or glass artist, all of us have borrowed styles, copied techniques and with a twist here and there, made them our own.
“In this exhibition, I have taken a journey through mediums, techniques and places.
“From repurposed glass gum leaves, acrylics on repurposed canvas with silk thread to glass outback sunrise, watercolours and a few twisted bottles.....
“I love the process of trying new-to-me techniques and processes and allowing my inner-child to roam free.”
