Monthly Meeting & Demonstration - 14th July: Geraldine Taylor - Birds in Gouache


This month we are pleased to welcome Geraldine Taylor to our Monthly Meeting for July Tuesday the 14th, 7:30pm at the Stans Stevens Studio, Deerubbin Centre, George St, Windsor.

Geraldine will be doing Birds in Gouache.

Geraldine is a professional Australian artist and love to work with gouache and acrylics. However she have produced works in oils, charcoal,  watercolour, pencil and coloured pencil.
Geraldine is a Sydney artist who has had no formal training and is relative newcomer to the art scene.  Her preferred mediums are gouache, watercolour, acrylics and pencil but she has also produced works in oil and charcoal.  Her works include landscapes, seascapes, flora and fauna. These display a great deal of detail and a vibrancy of colour, which highlight Geraldine’s unique style.  Her wildlife art is of particular note. Much of Geraldine’s work is privately commissioned both nationally and internationally and includes an extensive range of pet portraits, highly acclaimed for their likeness and portrayal of the individual character and personality of each pet.  

Check Geraldine's website: www.gerryspaintbrush.com.au



Both Members and Non Members are welcome to join us for our meetings to view an inspirational artist at work each month, as well as the opportunity to enjoy networking with like-minded art enthusiasts.
