🌼 Highly Commended | The Colour Exhibition 2023 🌼
Spring in the Air by Gulia Iv | Oil on canvas, framed

This is a beautiful piece by Gulia. Congratulations on winning a Highly Commended by our judges!

🌼 Artist Statement
“Bright yellow and lush green are the colours of spring in the farmland on Western Australia. Canola crops bloom early this year and they make such a splash of colour I had to capture on the canvas.”

🏡 Highly Commended | The Colour Exhibition 2023 🏡
Little Boxes by Liz Elkington | Mosaic picture. Micro tiles, wood, glass, paint

Congratulations to Liz on her Highly Commended! Her artwork is a beautiful representation of community. The Colour Exhibition is now officially over for another year. We still have one more prize to give away with the People's Choice, the votes are being tallied up as we speak. So keeps your eyes peeled for when we announce the winner!

🏡 Artist Statement
“I love exploring the tiny details in images. The little pops of colour that can change a simple shape into a complex image. Architecture has always been a great interest to me, so this little fantasy village is my nod to the individuality of each person. We are in our own little boxes but we can come together as a whole community.”

🪴 Artist Statement
“Some ideas present themselves fully formed. Others hang around in the imagination, waiting, revealing only small or partial snippets and tantalising glimpses of colour and the potential of what they may become. Sometimes, like Seed, this process of germination can be agonisingly slow for the idea’s creator.”

🪻 People’sChoice Award | The Colour Exhibition 2023 🪻
Beneath the Show Offs by Christine Jolly | A floral arrangement of Australian flowers made primarily of recycled coffee pods.

Congratulations to Christine for winning the People's Choice Award sponsored by Suzanne at the House of Perri. The People's Choice Award is awarded based on votes via the community. Everyone who went to The Colour Exhibition had the opportunity to vote so 'Beneath the Show Offs' is clearly a crowd favourite! Congratulations again to Christine.

🪻 Artist's Statement:
“Our Australian National and State wildflowers are breathtaking.
Each has meaning and purpose for having been chosen for their many roles in our culture and celebrations.

However, in the native forests and bush lands of the South West of WA, hidden tiny treasures herald the end of winter, hiding their ‘colour in small spaces’ of sunshine.
Can you find them?

🌱 Highly Commended | The Colour Exhibition 2023 🌱
Lichen by Christy Valli | Slate and glass

Congratulations to Christy! Her piece 'Lichen' was given a Highly Commended award by our judges. Christy certainly saw Colour in SMALL Spaces with her art piece. Simply gorgeous!

🌱 Artist Statement:
“Looking at the colours of lichen growing on the trunks of trees was what gave me the inspiration for this piece. When it came to the subject of Colour in Small Spaces I took it literally, in the form of these amazing tiny plants.”

☀️ Highly Commended | The Colour Exhibition 2023 ☀️
Here Comes the Sun by Diana Neggo | Acrylic painting on cradled board

Congratulations to Diana for being awarded Highly Commended by our judges! Remember The Colour Exhibition finishes today. We've had a wonderful week celebrating 'Colour in SMALL Spaces'.

☀️ Artist Statement:
“ ‘Here Comes the Sun’ reflects the changing colours of the seasons in the Ferguson Valley.
The sun breaks free from its heavy mantle of grey clouds and illuminates the hills in awash of vibrant green and gold.
The vines have lost their leaves and are waiting their annual prune. Despite their bare branches, the red brown canes dance to the magic of the complimentary colours that surround them.
‘Here Comes the Sun’ is painted with acrylic paints using brushes and pallet knife on cradled board. I chose the complimentary pallet of red/orange and green/yellow to make the colours sing as does my heart with that momentary flash of light and colour.”
