THE JOYS OF VISUAL IMPAIRMENT.
I kid you not. Last week I had a good look all around the annual Bundaberg Art Prize, and passed this young woman looking at a painting. I went past, then later came back and she was still there, staring intently. I turned back and said, “I think you need to buy that painting.” Then I realised she was a mannequin. Lucky no-one heard me. It made me laugh to myself at least.

The Bundaberg Art prize is held annually in Bundaberg, Q. Australia, with $20,000 worth of prize money total, and held in a pop-up vacant shop situation each year. Always a great event. (Photo: copyright Dennis Mealor 2022).

I love this painting by Guest Artist Karen Roberts (from Brisbane, Q. Australia).
Rather than my raving on about her, here is a short bio in her own words:
“I’ve been a practising artist for 30 years and during that time my works have been added to collections and featured in numerous publications. I paint and sculpt and I’m passionate about creating one-off pieces of jewellery. My sculptures are mostly assemblage and I love creating with old and found bits and pieces.
Throughout the years I’ve exhibited collaboratively and solo and I’ve won awards for some of my works. Creating is my life , and I live surrounded with colour and things I’ve collected whilst travelling.”
See Karen’s Birchwood Creations site on Facebook here: https://www.facebook.com/create2live
ALSO: Karen is in an art exhibition at Cooroy Art Hub (Cooroy, Q. Australia), opening 17th June to 29th July 2022. Apart from Karen’s artwork, Cooroy is a great place to visit, with a vibrant art scene!!
