Art Prizes
Happy to announce I am a finalist in The John Villers Outback Art Prize
and The Glover Landscape Prize .
Winners to be announced in March.
"Shapes of Our Land"
Oil on canvas 100cm x 100cm.
As Dorothea Mackellar penned in her famous poem.." of droughts and flooding rain...", we are a diverse Country, and so large that of course the weather and landscape reflects this. On a flight to Perth I was fascinated by the view from 30,000 feet. The topography with its patterned terrain had me seeing Matisse like patterns. I knew then that I had to paint this particular geography. The theme for this year's Outback prize is a sense of place. I felt that painting this from my experiences of capturing our outback from above, is my way of celebrating our connection to the land.

Commissions
Donna will design an artwork with your family, or corporate environment in mind. This Artwork was created for Colin's 70th Birthday. "I delivered it in time for the big reveal at his Birthday Lunch as a surprise. He said it was the best Birthday present he has ever got. Although this isn't the full size of the artwork shown, I have painted all of his family in enjoying the sunrise out the front of their house in Wynnum. I used a photo provided by his wife from her morning walks, and then used various photos supplied of other family members. Felt like I knew them all in the end!" Donna Gibb
