The world of boats, wharfs & marinas can be quite diverse but they have one common factor – water transportation. Whether transporting cargo, people and animals, or racing for a win, it is on the water. How the water reflects and moves adds great effect to your artworks. The type of sky just as important for the subject. Think carefully about the horizon, sky colour and how the clouds might direct the eye. Remember “Value” is about ‘Light’ or ‘Lack of Light’ of which this topic has bucketloads. If you can capture the movement, even better.
The April monthly themed exhibition is Boats / Wharfs / Marinas.
Please come and view the exhibition from April 5, 2024 through May 10, 2024 at Hervey Bay Art Society’s “Gallery 5” Art Gallery, at 5 Sandy St Urangan. Gallery 5 is open daily and entry is free.
This exhibition is in addition to a rotating collection of other art exhibitions always on display. All these exhibitions feature well priced pieces that would make great acquisitions or gifts.
The next monthly members competition is Abstractions which will be held from June 7th, 2024 through July 7th, 2024.
