Born in Germany, Amica spent much of her childhood on the rugged coast of England’s Isle of Wight. Following several years traveling the world, she eventually emigrated to Australia with her family, initially settling in Brisbane before moving to her current home in Gympie, a former gold mining town in southeast Queensland. Consequently this is reflected with her love of wide open spaces, Amica maintains a painting practice deeply informed by the forms and colours of the natural world.

Lise Temple is an award-winning contemporary artist residing in the Barossa Valley, South Australia. Her paintings are influenced by the vivid colours and atmospheric light of the Mid North and the experience of viewing different landscapes from changing viewpoints which she interprets with an abstract approach. Further to her depictions of South Australian landscapes, Lise also examines the various structures of built environments and interiors. This exhibition will be a wonderful combination of both her interior / exterior explorations.

Peter Watts is an award-winning landscape artist - a finalist in the 2021 and 2022 Glover Prize, he captures fleeting moments of light and shade in the dramatic skies across Central Victoria and South Eastern Australia. Peter’s paintings are influenced by vivid cloudscapes and landscapes around the Daylesford area, interpreting the wild combinations of shade, movement and time shifts inherent in the high hills. With a distinct perspective on nature’s ferocity and beauty, Peter moves from reality to a subtle abstraction that brings his work to life.

Katie Wyatt has been painting professionally since 2007 and is represented in galleries in South Australia, Victoria, New South Wales and online. She has held many successful solo exhibitions and has received numerous awards for her work. Katie is often asked if her paintings are specific locations of a particular scene or area. Rather than being a representation of a place, her pieces are created entirely from memory, recollection, and emotion as a response to experiencing the incredible beauty of our Australian landscape and coastline. This exhibition “Down to Earth” reflects Katie’s warmth and approachability which she hopes will remind us of the beauty that surrounds us—the landscapes that hold our memories and the emotions that colour our lives.

Eliza Piro was born in Adelaide and spent her younger years growing up in Clare in the mid-north of South Australia. Further study at the Melbourne School of Photography gave Eliza a greater understanding of colour, texture and form which led into experimenting with different mediums. Eliza now practices as a full-time artist working in acrylic and watercolour on canvas and paper. Eliza is inspired by the kaleidoscope of colours that she encounters in both her daily life and her many travels. India has had a particular influence on Eliza’s work with its tapestry of rich hues, patterns and textures and her rhythmic brushstrokes capture the essence of a land where colour is not just pigment, but a living, breathing entity. Many of the works in this exhibition have also been inspired by recent holidays snorkelling off the Great Barrier Reef while marvelling at the delicate coral formations and their fragility juxtaposed against the vastness of the ocean. Eliza’s work is bold, spirited, and beautiful. Her paintings are a celebration of colour, pattern, and nature’s intricate forms to convey a sense of optimism and joy.

My still life studio is a refuge – a quiet place where I feel as if time stands still, and this stillness becomes encapsulated within my paintings”.
