From November to January, Wyreena’s Arts Lounge will feature the art of Alecia Cornwell, Jodie Kimpton and Gillian Nix.
Join us in the Arts Lounge at Wyreena Community Arts Centre to enjoy this exhibition by some of our local artists.
Alicia Cornwell
Alicia Cornwell is a local artist specialising in oil painting - particularly contemporary realism. Her work demonstrates a love of vintage and florals with an eye for detail and an appreciation for the depth of glazes. Alicia paints items that catch her eye, incorporating the beauty of both natural and man-made design. She incorporates things of old which are offset by the colour and light of nature from her mountain garden. Nothing makes Alicia happier than exploring the colours of a flower with her paint brush and matching her antique and vintage collections together.

Jodie Kimpton
Jodie Kimpton is a local artisan, wildlife and watercolour artist and graphic designer. Her paintings, prints and handmade jewellery are inspired by her travel and her overseas adventures and the people she meets. Jodie’s work also communicates the importance of caring for yourself and others along with an appreciation for the natural environment. Her creative influences include English textile design, botanical works and Indian design.
