MINIATURE ART EXHIBITION
An introduction of Miniature Art to the gallery by renowned miniaturists Australia wide including Patricia Moy, Angela Gill, Janet Matthews and Regina Brewster. “Miniature Art is a specialty art form which traces its roots back to books of illuminated manuscripts from the 6th and 7th centuries. A miniature painting is not a small piece cut from a larger painting that did not work but a little picture created in its entirety on a small surface with a fine brush, pen, pencil or etching tool” – quote from Joan Kelly, President Australian Society of Miniature Art (ASMA) Tasmania.

Brendon Darby TIME LINES & TIDE LINES – THE KIMBERLEY COAST The works on exhibition feature the very obvious lines of sediment turned to stone, bent and twisted over millions of years creating TIME LINES - sitting above the two constantly parallel lines of the ocean and the high tide line which is stained into the rock face creating TIDE LINES.
When viewed from the ocean, apart from being a wonderful graphic image, it is also an unavoidable display of time and our insignificance. View all works
