Lynne Pemberton

Originally from Sydney, Lynne Pemberton’s work explores open landscapes, sunsets and farm scenes. Lynne likes to use pencils and watercolours in her depictions of the Australian landscape. Lynne has an impeccable eye for detail and uses the methods of traditional rendering to draw in her audience.

Jing He

Jing He is a dynamic and experimental artist.  Jing’s enthusiasm for material is evident in her bold but delicate use of plaster and natural materials.  Her recent objects explore nature, sense of place and the feminine.
