The Clare Valley Portrait prize exhibition is open with art from the Clare Valley and surrounding regions at the Clare Valley Wine Food and Tourism Centre.
This year I have two portraits entered – “Miho” and “Willow and Gemima”. The medium is Derivan Mattise acrylic ink on Fabriano watercolour paper.
Originally from Japan, Miho is a good friend from Clare who agreed to model in her Japanese kimono. The artwork portrays her in a traditional sense, contrasting the modern lifestyle that she lives in Clare.
The second portrait entered is of my two girls Willow and Gemima at home in Spring Gully. They love playing together in the open spaces of home!
When: 28th June to 30th July 2018
Where: Clare Valley Wine Food and Tourism Centre, 8 Spring Gully Road, Clare South Australia
Derivan Mattise acrylic inks and Fabriano watercolour paper are available from The Journey Studio shop – shop.thejourneystudio.com.au.
