Set on Castlereagh Street Sydney, early on a Thursday evening, not so long ago. . “Evenfall” - 90 x 90 cm - oil on panel . #nationalemergingartprize #oilpainting #cityscape #sydney #sydneyart #sydneyartists #contemporaryart #stephenwilliamsart https://www.instagram.com/p/CV4DmOZhr48/?utm_medium=tumblr

When things go right. Final painting plan gets abandoned at the underpainting stage when I decide that I can probably only make it worse, not better from here. . <Inception #003> 50.5 x 30.5 cm oil on panel (at Sydney, Australia) https://www.instagram.com/p/CTAxPp7Bqo3/?utm_medium=tumblr

“The Capricious Sky” has been selected as a finalist in the 2021 Korea-Australia Arts Foundation Prize. Feeling very fortunate. Over 600 entries, 66 shortlisted. Congratulations to all the other finalists. The Finalists’ Exhibition is expected to run from July 23 - August 27 at the Korean Cultural Centre, Ground Floor, 255 Elizabeth Street Sydney. Hopefully the current lockdown succeeds and everything can go ahead as planned. . “The Capricious Sky” 101.5 x 101.5 cm Oil on linen . #kaafartprize #artprize #sydneyart #cityscape #oilpainting https://www.instagram.com/p/CRCnsisD0GR/?utm_medium=tumblr

Hanging around the bar......I’ve no problem with that. Probably no better place to be on a stormy Saturday evening at the opening of the #hornsbyartprize The bad news....the bar is no longer there. The good news....the weather is clearing and the excellent Finalists’ Exhibition runs until October 28 in the stunning heritage listed Wallarobba Arts & Cultural Centre in Hornsby. Congratulations to the winner @clifford_how https://www.instagram.com/p/BpK0o7bhE_i/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=4lonnd2nwlh3

‘York & King in blue’ is now hanging at the Hornsby Art Prize Finalists’ Exhibition at the Wallarobba Arts and Cultural Centre until 28 October. I went and had a sneak peek this morning.
