February 6, 2023<\/strong><\/p>\n

South Burnett artists have taken over the Wondai Regional Art Gallery for February, with works in all three gallery spaces.<\/p>\n

In the Alison Iszlaub Gallery (the main space), Wondai watercolour artist Sue Warry has “Telling Tales With Line and Colour”, capturing South Burnett scenes and “some from imagination”.<\/p>\n

This is Sue’s third solo exhibition.<\/p>\n

In the back gallery (Gallery 3), Moffatdale residents Joy Thomson (artist) and Liz Barratt (photographer) have filled the space with landscape photographs, sketches and paintings.<\/p>\n

Sue and Joy are also members of “Rural Sketchers South Burnett”, a group started by local artist Pat van Kempen to encourage local people to gather together outdoors to sketch various South Burnett scenes.<\/p>\n

The “Rural Sketchers” have works on display in the front gallery this month (Gallery 1).<\/p>\n

Pat said she had been attending a popular urban sketching group in Brisbane, and thought the idea could work in the South Burnett.<\/strong><\/p>\n

”We try to go once a month somewhere in the South Burnett,” she told the exhibition opening crowd on Friday night.<\/p>\n

“Anyone is welcome. There is no cost but you supply your own sketch kits.<\/p>\n

“We have a cuppa afterwards to support local businesses.”<\/p>\n

She said there were now about eight members coming along.<\/p>\n

Works from children from Tingoora State School are featured in Kidz Korner.<\/p>\n

A large crowd gathered for the opening night, including a group of friends who are members of the Goomeri Creatives art group.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Live entertainment was supplied by opening night regular, musician Neil Hutton.<\/p>\n

South Burnett mayor Brett Otto officially opened the exhibition.<\/p>\n

He praised the Wondai Gallery and the its volunteers, saying it was continuing to get “bigger and bigger, and better and better”.<\/p>\n

The exhibition will remain on show at the Wondai Regional Art Gallery until the end of February.<\/p>\n

The gallery is open from 10:00am to 3:00pm, seven days a week. Entry is free.<\/p>\n
