Francis (Peter) Nicholls, In Silence Under Oxides.
Oil on board.
A fully resolved, confidently executed oil painting. Small in size but rich in colour. Expressive use of impasto paint with directional open strokes creating textural unity through out the work.

Phillip Markham, Doubtful.
Watercolour on paper.
An impressive watercolour, depicting a very recognisable Doubtful Sound. Great use of scale and repetition in the bush clad mountains. Brilliant contrast of light and dark capturing the tranquillity of Fiordland.

Jo Loughnan, Blue Shirt.
Mixed media on Paper.
A very gestural figure study created with loose spontaneous application of indian ink and paint. Confident mark making which shows the experience of the artist.
