Art on Show Events
2020 Woollam Constructions Art on Show Awards Exhibition and Awards Presentation Opening Evening
The talented artists from the Slade Point Drawing Group, a group of likeminded artists with a passion for Life Drawing who meet weekly to draw the nude figure, joined us in 2019. Artists observed the human form and were drawing from life using mediums such as charcoal, conte, pastel or pencil. Onlookers invited to try their hand.
Artspace Mackay Gallery Director Tracey Heathwood presented an inspirational Director’s Choice: Artists’ books floor talks. Choosing a selection of her favorite artists’ books from the Mackay Regional Council artists’ books collection. Tracey has a long association with the gallery and its collection of artists’ books and is herself a practicing printmaker, and her shared personal insights into some of her favorite artists and artists’ books, a wonderful and insightful addition to this year’s event.
Mackay Art Society joined us in 2019. Showcasing their talents and demonstrating the fine art of easel painting, depicting the artist’s individual style, form colour and details.
