Two artists will combine their passion and experience of life drawings and applications to still life through Fyansford.
The Papermill Gallery on 100 Lower Paper Mills Road will host the Such is Life exhibition daily from July 6 from 11am to 4pm with its grand opening at 2pm on July 7.
The free exhibition will feature the works of John Barton and Nellie Maertzdorf Ellis, new exhibitors at the Papermill Gallery.
“We have both done a bit of both and we enjoy both aspects… We also have a love of painting in all forms,” Ms Maertzdorf Ellis said.
“It’s an exhibition based on still life and life drawings, and the works of art in the exhibition will be on those topics.
“Based on two forms of life and the ranges are very broad as we wanted to include a bit of variation through our art.”
A life drawing is a drawing of a human figure, while still life drawings are drawings of non-living objects arranged to create meaning or a visual effect.
The Papermill Gallery recently finished its Moorabool exhibition of paintings by Marion East, which had been on display from June 8 to 30, with the Such is Life exhibition running until July 21.
The Gallery sits within the historic Fyansford Paper Mill complex and is known as a centre for visual arts and music.
