They had a great afternoon and I served ice kachang!

Lars Sternberg: 'Walking the Lanes' @ Space22
This is one show that impressed me. You can see the love of bushwalking. Lars has done it well. Loved it.
Scope2011 @ Post Office Gallery
Scope2011 at the university of Ballarat's gallery had some nice paintings I liked, especially the landscapes and the scuptures. Otherwise the show did not really impress me.

Hindsight @ Red Brick Gallery
This month's exhibition had some impressive paintings such as the two below.
The upstairs main gallery is small but adequate enough to show of the paintings
The gallery courtyard at the back of the gallery's emporium is wonderful, beautiful gardens and seats. The gallery has come a long way with its emporium chocablok with art works.
I am delighted to have met the co-owner Steph. She is a very nice person and they run a good gallery, another of the wonderful art scene in Ballarat.

Marcia King-take a leap @ Space22
Helamen says, the jumps and leaping activities of the drawings were breathtaking. They convey the feeling of the art of Le Parkour, and the ideas expounded by Marcia was quite novel to me. I cannot do justice to her, without the lengthy quotes of her ideas of 'taking a leap', or starting a new, so I refrain here. These few images will hopefully convey the feelings of her drawings and her concepts.
Helamen says impressive!

Michael Grant's Buna @ Post Office Gallery
Michael Grant's Buna paintings depicts the sensitive and emphathises with the fallen Aussie diggers at Pupua in the WWII, these paintings were for his Masters degree at the University of Ballarat. He travelled widely in Pupua for his research studies. Helamen says he likes the paintings although some of the faces depicting were a little horrifying for his taste.

Dawn's latest painting
Helamen says, "Dawn's latest painting". A big departure from her usual abstract pieces, this one is simple but quite nice I thought.

Dawn is going to sell her art at this market in Melbourne.

Debbie Hill @Postoffice Gallery
Helamen says today we went to see Debbie Hill and Duncan Lanne's exhibition at the Postoffice Gallery at the University of Ballarat. I did not appreciate Debbie's paintings until she explains that they were social comments on "what happens when we go to bed", the things that we don't see in our world here in Oz, all happening overnight in the other hemisphere. Hence the green paintings of dolls and toy soldiers on a black background. I still think that they are a bit too dark for my liking.
Also, black velvet is in vogue again.

Orbit @Space22
Loris Button's, Helamen likes these, very signature works of Loris.
I liked these pair too, very colourful and interesting, pleasing to the eye.
Casey Tosh @Red Brick
Red brick gallery in Ballarat.
Helamen said, "We went to see Casey Tosh exhibition, I did not not like it and I think it lacks continuity, although the painting of Nick Cave was notable. However it looked too much like a caricature. "
