two artists

two australian artists with a capacity to paint the beautiful mundane with sensitivity and charm. For some artists it's not what you paint but how you paint it that holds the mystique. Dane Lovett's watercolours are deliciously unformed in one sense - the puddles of colour bearly holding together in the most delicate fashion. like a thought in form. love.

Victoria Reichelt... that's some tidy, fresh painting. Crisp vs old school - works for me. Victoria is also a finalist in this years Sulman Prize at the AGNSW... her painting is actually hanging next to mine (thanks to this years artist judge Imants Tillers) - good company.
