9. SANDIE SCHRODER has been living in the Perth hills for the past 12years. Living amongst the bush environment has directly impacted her artwork. The threat of fire is shown through her works by the techniques sheuses to create her pieces. Sandie burns the archival paper to produce herimages using a variety of tools and techniques. She has had many closecalls when creating these pieces, with them literally going up in smoke asthe burning got out of control, reinforcing the ever present threat of fire,living amongst our volatile bushland. Sandie has a Bachelor of Fine ArtsDegree majoring in Painting and Sculpture from Curtin University.Her works have been hung in public and private collections and galleriesnationally. Her art can be seen at Linton & Kay Galleries Mandoon Estateand to see more of images go to www.facebook.com/SandieSchroderArtisthttp://www.lintonandkay.com.au/artists/sandie-schroder/
10. SANDRA HALL My current focus is on raw nature in the landscape. The small and common is given a close scrutiny with a view to exposing thethe extraordinary fragility and beauty there. The ongoing consciousness ofthe loss of biodiversity under population pressure drives my thinking as wellas a childhood on a coffee plantation in South India where the natural worldwas dominant. Scientific illustrations inform some of the layout of my printsbut don’t want to be merely descriptive and Midland with its power pylonsand earth moving machinery offers powerful symbols about landscape.Some ideas come from my back garden, others from the hills environs andiconic places around Western Australia and North Queensland.

14. GAIL DOUST KEIRLE grew up on her family farm near Manjimup, deepin the Jarrah and Marri Forests of South Western Australia, before spendingher early adult life in suburban Perth. In 2005 she moved to Lesmurdie inthe hills east of Perth, and again connected to the forests which now inspireher to explore their beauty in watercolours. Starting in 2008, she wasprivileged to have watercolour lessons with Virginia Ward who shared herpassion for the subtle colours and movement of the Swan River waters andforeshores. In 2009 Gail began to attend workshops and then private tuitionwith Lori Neuzerling. Gail’s insights and influences come during hours ofwandering, observing and collecting. Much time is spent meditating, sittingin, and being in awe of, our wonderful forests, deserts and waterways. Shealso spends a great deal of time in her trusty camper van adventuringaround our wonderful country. Favourite inspirations now come fromhonky nuts, bark, leaves, birds’ nests, lichens and mushrooms and fungi.One of Gail’s greatest pleasures comes from sharing the beauty and depthsof her paintings and this has led to several commissions, a Lion’s Art Awardand many visitors to her Lesmurdie garden and studio. Contact: [email protected] • 0422 410 8267. HAYWARD STUDIO -
George Hayward studied Artand Design first at Cambridgeand later at Chelmsford in theUK. He pursued his ambitionto be a full time painter andalso worked in ceramics on theIsle of Wight before emigratingto Australia. Now fortunate tohave his own purpose builtrammed earth studio inKalamunda he is able to combine his own painting time with that of running“just paint” art classes. His preference is acrylic although he also works in oilsand pastel. With an impatient and spontaneous style, acrylics allow him thefreedom he requires. Nature and landscape have always been a majorinfluence in his work. However, he paints whatever stirs his emotions,especially those that rise from deep within. Helen Hayward loves to paint,loves the process of painting and keenly continues to explore techniqueswhich enable her to express feelings and emotions which arise from anintense connection with nature and the landscape.

“ Disappearing Beauties”I am working on multi block linoprints. My concerns are withanimals and landscape. This oneis a protest print about local bushhabitat that is a corridor for theRed-Tail Black Cockatoo. I try tocombine signs with the image toconvey a meaning.
