Kay Binns

Artist Statement

​

I have been potting now for quite a few years, since moving to the bush as part of the ‘Back to the Earth’ movement and have completed several years of TAFE study in ceramics.

​

As a self-sufficient potter, I do the usual: bowls, mugs, jugs etc. I also like to do sculptures on various themes. In my gas-kiln, I fire both earthenware and stoneware and would describe my work as ‘rustic.’

Living in Gulgong, I also participate with a stall at the monthly Gulgong market which is every fourth Saturday of the month at Coronation Park on Mayne Street.

​

I like to think that people who buy my works will enjoy them, as much as I enjoy making them.

Artist Statement

​

My love of the Australian landscape is reflected in my watercolours. Many of my paintings feature water in the landscape and the luminosity of watercolour paints is perfect for creating the sparkle, depth and reflections in water.

Belinda Davies

Artist Statement

​

Self taught abstract and mosaic artist working from 'Karralika Studio', Gulgong NSW. 

​

Working mainly in acrylics on canvas. The subject normally is irrelevant, the bright colours are what commit me to a painting. Having said that I work in black and white as well depending on how I feel! 

​

I am right handed but tend to paint the final stages with my left hand as it gives me the lines I'm looking for.

​

Recently started in mosaics a wonderful therapeutic pastime where I can lose myself in the process.
