My first reaction to the blurb was framed in my recent experience selling things through the Australian online market site. I did not get the connection till I walked into the gallery to be confronted by real gum trees in paint.
Have a look at some samples and the gallery material below – they are great
May 31 – June 19 2017
Large, sweeping, dance inspired abstractions are what Andrea McCuaig has on exhibition at the Form Gallery at Queanbeyan. Her works are sometimes in black and white tones and others are full of explosive reds and oranges.
Some sample pics and gallery materials are below.
Until May 23 2017
Kate Hine creates wonderful collages in black and white that draw on house and home in a life that involved regular moves. The works are drawn from family memorabilia and drawings she has done at earlier times.
Maxine Price creates marvellous pottery figures that have a sense of fun and at times an aura of melancholy. She has a set of creations now that model the style she has refined to high art. There are only a small number but each one is a charming and heart warming reflection of humanity.
Pics of works by both artists below.
Until May 23
Lynne Flemmons created a set of beautiful works that reflect the shorelines of Weereewa (Lake George). The works have a truly delightful set of connections with the region. Having travelled through the area hundreds of times the sight of wire, fencing, timber and other normal detritus from years of sporadic farming and human habitation. The images below show the style.
10 – 22 October 2016
Mental Health Awareness Week shows its presence in our community in many forms. The exhibition at the Queanbeyan Arts Centre is using art to raise awareness of Mental Health issues. The Community art show was a work of several community mental health organisations and brought together artists in the community for this show.

The Trish Yates exhibition at Form Studio and Gallery in October showed a delightful skill at representing glimpses of Australian bush. By focusing on chosen bits Ms Yates creates beautiful clear-sighted paintings of bark sections ground landscapes and combined colourful spectacles that are all marked by a sense of “I have seen that!”.

19 July -7 August 2016
Living in Canberra we get to see huge amounts of creative art. I see more than one exhibition per day over a year. Other parts of Australia are not so fortunate. At Form Studio and Gallery there is a fund raiser exhibition to enable them to take an exhibition on the road to regional galleries.
Ros Auld and Claire Primrose have an exhibition in which they have collaborated to create works for sale. The income from the sales will be used to take art on the road. One of my favourite works of Claire’s has already sold.
If you are in the market for good art pop out.
