Where We Live
September 9th, 2019 by Anita Laurence
I am thrilled to be a to be exhibiting in Melbourne.
‘Where We Live’ is an exhibition of a selection of linocut prints and
etchings that celebrates the landscape I live in with a focus on
architecture. The starting point begins from my home in King Valley
where the central building of a farm cottage sits in a layered landscape
with iconic shaped trees and buildings including the distinctive
tobacco kilns silhouetted in the distance and far-off mountains in the
background.
The exhibition is at ART AT ST FRANCIS 326 Lonsdale St Melbourne from Tuesday 24th September till Monday 21st October
The gallery space is open Monday to Friday 9am -5pm and Sunday 9am -3pm
From country to city I find ‘where we live’ to be an inspiring subject
matter where I can explore shape, texture, space and contrast in
linocuts or the line, texture and pattern in an etching.
Printed in our King Valley Studio by my husband, Master Printmaker Bill
Young, who has also handcrafted the frames from upcycled Kauri Pine
floorboards.
If you are in or near Melbourne I hope you get an opportunity to pop in to see this body of work.

Middle Ground exhibition of new paintings
March 19th, 2019 by Anita Laurence
This summer I have been inspired by the intense colours of the pink, mauve and purple crepe myrtles that line the streets and grace the front yards of homes in Wangaratta. The dry summer makes me notice that the colours and the patterns of harvest still abound in the landscape against the intense green of the ripening grape vines. I have been painting on canvas this summer, exploring all these elements in my local landscape and other places that are near and dear to me. You will be able to see these new paintings at my exhibition Middle Ground 5 April – 6 May at Off Centre Gallery + Studio in Milawa VIC ( Milawa Cheese Factory Complex) To be opened on Saturday 6 April 3pm bySimone Nolan, Gallery Director Wangaratta Art Gallery Group exhibitions I am currently in Drawing From the Line 34 Artists make a printmaking response to poetry, quotations and the words that shape us.
