EXHIBITION OPENING
Ivy Hill Gallery Goes West!

Saturday 21st of September from 5pm to 7pm

Celebrate artistic creativity at the special opening of the new exhibition “Ivy Hill Gallery Goes West!”. Enjoy the opportunity to have a close look at the amazing range of paintings, ceramics and sculpture from 18 selected Ivy Hill Gallery Artists. Several artists will be in attendance on the evening. Join us for drinks and nibbles and help us celebrate. Everyone is welcome.

ABOUT THE EXHIBITION: Ivy Hill Gallery was a fixture on the Far South Coast of NSW for nearly 20 years. Situated on the Killen family property, between Bermagui and Tathra on the coast road, Ivy Hill was an outlet for the diverse artwork of the creative career artists of the area. Mentioned by The New York Times as a ‘place worth visiting’, Ivy Hill Gallery was much loved by artists and visitors alike. It was with sadness Carolyn Killen closed the Gallery in 2020 for family reasons.

A beautiful new gallery was built on the property which operated for three months in 2022 then closed due to difficulty with Council compliance. The properties have now been sold and Ivy Hill Gallery has ‘gone west’.

Simon Bragg, previously Chair of The Arts Centre Cootamundra (TACC), and Carolyn Killen decided this to be the perfect name for a two week exhibition at TACC featuring paintings, ceramics and sculpture by a selection of eighteen Ivy Hill Artists.

All artwork will be for sale after the exhibition opens. Click here to view the catalogue.

WORKSHOP
Watercolour for Beginners
With experienced artist Nina Roderick

Saturday 3rd August, 10am to 4pm
Cost of $110pp
(TACC Member Discount Available - email info@theartscentrecootamundra.org.au)

ABOUT THE WORKSHOP
A simple beginners class covering types of brushes, types of paper including how and when to stretch, colour including mixing, tonal values and techniques. Students do NOT need to know how to draw. This will be a very relaxed course and for everyone to enjoy themselves while they hopefully pick up some basic watercolour skills.

ABOUT NINA
I was born in the UK and emigrated with my parents to Australia in 1966. I have always had a passion for all things art and when I discovered that I could make my own at a very young age, there was no stopping me. After many years working and travelling, I have settled in the beautiful central western plains area of NSW. In 1997, I completed a Fine Arts course at TAFE which I completed with credits and distinctions. In 1998, I moved to WA, where I opened my own studio/gallery where I taught ceramics and painting in oils.

Since moving back east, I have ventured into various mediums including watercolour, mixed media and sculpture. I am an award winning artist having participated in many exhibitions and competitions throughout Australia including the Archibald and the Bald Archies. My artworks are represented in private collections throughout the UK, America and Australia. I am inspired by the effect of light and colour in the natural world. I love experimenting with watercolour, acrylics, oils, pastels and inks with a passion for portraits both human and animal forms. Art is therapy for me and I just simply enjoy creating.
