Jo Fernandez is a landscape artist living on the outskirts of the historic village of Millthorpe, in the NSW Central Tablelands. Her work draws deep inspiration from the region’s expansive skies, open land, and the shifting light and colour brought by its distinct seasons. Rooted in a landscape that is personal and close to home, Jo’s paintings begin with an emotional response to her surroundings. She seeks out elements that resonate deeply, using colour, tone, and atmosphere to distil their essence. Her technique of glazing—applying transparent layers of oil paint—brings a luminous depth to her works.

Exhibiting Artists: Pippita Bennett, Lea Durie, Christina McLean and Karlie Simring

Four artists, each rooted in the mediums of ceramics and textiles, unite in an exploration of materiality. This exhibition invites the audience on a sensory journey of earth and fiber.

This August we’re celebrating 5 years in business here at The Corner Store Gallery. And what better way to honor such an achievement than to bring you a fabulous group exhibition of incredible artists that we admire.

AUSTRALIANA is a group exhibition featuring the work of seven artists from across NSW and the ACT.  Each artist has created work that celebrates the diversity and unique beauty of this land we call home.  From our iconic flora and fauna to the history and stories of our first peoples. Our scenic landscapes and countryside to the seemingly mundane streets of suburbia.  A snapshot of iconic Australian imagery, through the eyes of seven fantastic artists from different walks of life.

Form and Shape is an exhibition featuring two Sydney-based artists. Both artists are currently undertaking Advanced Diploma in Ceramics, displaying very different styles and techniques.

BLUE is the 2nd Group Exhibition at The Corner Store Gallery for 2018.  Artists are invited to submit work of any medium, subject matter or size that predominantly features the colour blue.  The idea for this exhibition came to gallery director Madeline Holborow in 2017 while hanging the annual 8x10 exhibition.  Many of the artworks were primarily blue in colour and looked spectacular all displayed together.  Let's wash the gallery in blue just to celebrate colour for the sake of colour.  The exhibition will include the most exciting and original artworks submitted for selection from artists and designers from all over Australia.

Threaded showcases the work of Tracy Dickason, an emerging artist based in Northern Sydney. Her artistic practice is a combination of porcelain ceramics and mixed media contemporary illustration and painting on paper and canvas.
