Enjoying her Art • In addition to her art being a wonderful hobby, Gail Thomas is delighted with the sense of camaraderie she shares with like-minded people.

Out for a Ride • This painting is a reflection of our farming lifestyle, as my daughter is going out the front gate for a ride on one of her horses. It is a simple picture, but with added colour and texture, and some added life, it makes a nice painting.

Fine Artist, Tutor and Art Judge • Pencils have always been a part of my life

Blue Wrens • When I have a pencil in my hand, drawing the details of a quirky animal or bird, I am totally happy, in a meditative, calm, state where time stands still. I love to draw, every day. I love the look of detailed drawings. If given a few moments to do anything I like, I choose to draw.

The Need to Create • Throughout her life, Marilyn Murray has amassed an amazing array of artistic experiences which, in her words, “acknowledge my soul’s desire for creativity.”

Wait for me Dad! • Marilyn’s grandson Joseph is the inspiration for this artwork. He’s pictured with his Dad, fishing at Nudgee Beach.

Just do it! • Rosslyn explains her passion, “Most importantly, I intend to continue to share that which I have gleaned from art (and life), and really participate in and enjoy the life of an ‘emerging’ artist.”

Kick it to Me, Kick it to Me! • Adding in more emus is all part of the fun

The Call of Nature • “I am inspired to paint because I am inspired by the beauty of the world around me. There is a desire through my painting works to represent a moment in time in which I was truly amazed.”

Down From The Heavens Towards Milford Sound • The majesty of Milford Sound in New Zealand is powerfully portrayed in this painting.
