Tony Coles is an acclaimed, professional Sunshine Coast-based artist, intrigued by the mystery of creating a visual language.

His latest solo exhibition offers a captivating collection of abstract landscapes in oil paint featuring some notable local landforms.

A recurring subject for Coles is the dynamic meeting place of landform and sea.

This virtual place is where visions both real and imagined are reconstructed.

The balancing of elemental forms such as headlands, clouds and hills and the ever-changing light conditions inform his work.

Coles’ solo exhibition ‘where light falls’, running 16 September until 7 October is the latest local solo exhibition of his work since the new gallery space opened at Access Crescent in 2017 (formerly Cool Art Picture Framing Gallery on Beach Road, Coolum).

The gallery is open for public viewing six days a week, 9-5 Tuesday – Friday, 9-2 Monday and Saturday. See the gallery website for details of upcoming exhibitions and events.
