INSIGHTS

- Paul Evans Dedication to his craft, this artist has created stunning paintings which are admired in galleries and private collections all around the world.
- Nickolas Von Gentry “Art is not about making a portrait look like the person, creating a portrait is about telling a story. When you tell your story make sure you tell your own and that is what people will be attracted to.”
- Shirley Trevena A member of the United Kingdom’s Royal Institute of Painters in Water Colours for the last 20 years, this truly inspirational painter is not afraid to plunge into the deep end, plying her paper with bold, imaginative and exciting colours and subjects.
- Sidney Roland Nelmes Having his first art lesson in 65 years certainly refuelled the artistic passion of this humble artist.
- Sheryl Billings Studying up on history, art instruction books and DVDs, this talented artist successfully paints from a wide range of subjects, including Ned Kelly and Sovereign Hill.

DEMONSTRATIONS

and her nephews Ricky and Peter back to life was a very interesting experiment.
