Sunday Painters Series | Heath Nock
Offering a fresh approach to painting is Ngununggula’s next Sunday Painters Series artist, Heath Nock, who has come to the medium as a celebrated draughtsperson and tattoo artist. Living on Gandangara lands, in The Southern Tablelands, Nock explores his relationship with the Australian landscape working in oil and synthetic polymers paint, and pushing the figure into genderless forms in both urban and rural settings. His segue from a more graphic tattoo style to a brushy, fluid abstraction has been seamless, often taking its cue from music to tap into the world around him.

AWASH WITH COLOUR
Works from BDAS Tuesday morning watercolour group
We are ready and raring to go … and coming out of the lockdown with more energy and enthusiasm than ever.
MORE >
The Bowral Art Gallery is opening up again and it will be a celebration of colour and watercolour at its best.
Awash with Colour is an annual exhibition by the Tuesday morning Watercolour group who are just so happy to be out of lockdown and able to celebrate the beauty and magic of watercolour.
We are really more family than a group of students and are very lucky to have two fabulous tutors throughout the year in Kim Shannon and Wayne Davis. Who somehow manage to put up with us and even seem to enjoy the process of guiding us and mentoring us through the wonderful mystical world that is watercolour.
So please come and share the excitement of being back in the gallery and marvel at the mystery of watercolour and embrace the ‘happy accidents’ with us. -
