Carol Perry: Reflections of the North East...
Local painter Carol Perry’s Reflections of the North East features in the Gallery Shop throughout April. The exhibition of watercolour paintings focuses on Carol’s love of the local scenery and native birds. Carol finds beauty and inspiration in the north east Victorian landscape, with a particular interest in reflections on water. Carol began painting in watercolour after taking a course at Preston Technical College in 1964. While studying and working in engineering, she refined her drawing skills by working on engineering plans of large machinery. Carol then went on to work for an industrial designer, followed by a gas manufacturing company, drawing three-dimensional illustrations of parts and appliances. Currently practising at the Benalla Broken River Painters studio, Carol now has the opportunity to paint what she is passionate about. Her work has been included in art shows across north east Victoria, and featured in an exhibition of work by the Broken River Painters at Benalla Art Gallery in 2016.
