Journey on a world of colour

NOOSA garden furniture store Patio presents the art exhibition ‘Exotica’.
The exhibition is a collection of paintings from local artists Pam Taylor and Fay White.
The event takes you on a journey in the world of colour with tropical Queensland flowers, foliage and sea urchins to exotic places in Morocco with its culture in souk markets, designs and patterns.
Pam Taylor and Fay White have been artistic friends for some years both originally from Sydney, then finding themselves both moving to Noosa separately in early 2000, only to connect again with their art.
Fay is drawn to colour because it makes her feel invigorated and happy. Being an avid gardener and with the knowledge of the botanical names of plants and flowers, she often paints exotic tropical flowers, patterns or still life subjects with a stylised technique.
Pam’s works is contemporary/semi abstract using bold colour; she researches subjects and is drawn to colourful bold shaped foliage, fruit and flowers or from memories of travel with photographs that capture the culture of exotic countries like Morocco. She prefers to photograph the details of what catches her eye to paint, these become her holiday pictures, so there is always plenty of subject matter for further inspiration.
The “Exotica” art exhibition will be hosted at PATIO-Top Garden Furniture in ACRES-NOOSA from 1 October 2015 to 2 January 2016.
Locals and visitors alike are invited to join for a ‘meet the artist’ open evening on Saturday 10 October from 3pm to 5pm.
Drinks will be served while chatting with Pam and Fay with special guest award winning body painting artist Jude Spence.
Jude will be “live” painting one of the paintings from the exhibition on model Oliver as a prelude to the upcoming Australian Body Art Festival in Eumundi later the same month.
