Gallery Hopping

Had an enriching Thursday gallery hopping.
Saw Maryanne Coutts at Australian Galleries in Derby St,
What an interesting artist - use of watercolour and mixed media is very innovative



Then went on to Chrysalis to see the latest Jon Ryrie exhibition....

an inspiration indeed. Very different from Coutts, but enchanting because of his themes and superb, superb, superb craftsmanship.
The invitation image is wonderful.
A master of the linocut


Finally the Banyule Works on Paper Award.
A great spread of works from established artists.
Felt quite inspired by the end of the day!
