February Featured artists 2015




Artist: Mia Kolpin
Title: Vessels, Urchins, Eruptions, Unworldly
Medium: Hand blown glass
Venue: 27 Deakin Cafe 


This body of work came from an amazing demonstration where glass was manipulated in the hot shop beginning as a vessel. A section of the vessel was heated and the glass was blown to cause a ‘blow out’ effect. Such amazing fun and the unpredictability of what the end result would be was both terrifying and captivating.






Artist: Fletcher Heagerty
Title: Hand drawn still life (4 years Old)
Medium: Drawing/Installation
Venue: Premier Art Supplies

A child prodigy or Wunderkid is a person who, at an early age develops one or more skills at a level far beyond the norm for their age. A prodigy has to be a child, or at least younger than 18 years who is performing at the level of a highly trained adult in a very demanding field of endeavor.





Artist: Douglas Lemon 
Title: Dragon fly
Medium: copper foil, Aluminium and glass melded in a kiln
Venue: Chann & Naylor

Doug was born and raised in Mildura and I  fully qualified cabinet maker. He discovered his love of glass when he started lessons in Mildura with Max Robertson doing led lighting. After a move to the South West Coast, Doug attended classes with David Hobday in Queenscliff and found a new passion for glass melding. He particularly likes to experiment with different mediums and glass, including Aluminum and copper.
New pieces under development are occasional tables made from stainless steel, old hardwood timber and glass.

Rice Paper Trail

Medium: watercolour, ink, coloured pencil, graphite on Chinese rice paper

I bought a long roll of Chinese rice paper about two years ago and have been working on it over time. I collect stones, leaves, bark and other objects from places I visit as well as from around my home, and reproduce them by tracing, rubbings and drawing in as many ways as I like. I also try different ways to dye the paper.

Returning to this scroll from time to time is a bit like returning to a meandering trail, where I spend time exploring different ways of representing landscapes and memories of places that are meaningful to me. I am continually inspired by the persistence of nature in spite of everything that is done to it.

 I have discovered that the rice paper is a very generous medium, so strong and forgiving. Somewhere I read rice paper described as being, “..truthfull to the moment..”

My aim is to simply enjoy the process of drawing. If anything else happens, that’s a bonus.
