New contemporary art at Pomona Gallery this April

Janet Luttrell is showing her first exhibition at Pomona Railway Station Gallery until 27 April.

Pomona Railway Station Gallery is hosting two new exhibitions by contemporary artists throughout April.

Scratching the Surface is a collection of work by Cooran artist Diana Shepherd, painted over the last twelve months.

Diana’s paintings are mixed media, modern and abstract. Each work is different, a moment in time.

“My paintings evolve and merge organically,” Diana said.

“Multiple layers with, usually, much scratching back (sgraffito).”

Visitors are invited to meet the artist at 10am on opening day Saturday 2 April. The exhibition runs until 4 May.

Janet Luttrell is holding her first solo exhibition in the Banana Shed, opening Saturday 26 March. Working in acrylic on canvas, Janet’s work is mainly contemporary and impressionistic.

“I enjoy painting landscape, still life, Australian flora and fauna, sometimes with a touch of English influence,” Janet said.

“I specialise in the use of many colours in each painting to express movement and form, so my paintings have a lot of energy.”

Janet’s exhibition is on show until 27 April.

Pomona Railway Station Gallery is at 10 Station Street Pomona, open 10am-4pm Tuesday to Friday and 10am to 2pm Saturday and Sunday.
