What's on in the studio - Sketching out some ideas using the basic photo editor on my phone.

I do this over a photo of a painting. Best way to find a direction when I'm stuck or too petrified to put more paint on my canvas.

Something good is happening. But I need to edit out some other things. My problem ALWAYS ... What things!!!

It's time for an introduction! I'm Kim Lowe, one of the artists in the View St Artist Collective in Valentine's Antique Gallery.

I love working across a mix of mediums - watercolour is my first love, followed closely by digital drawing, acrylics, and urban sketching. My style leans toward quick, quirky ink sketches with a splash of watercolour, and I’m especially drawn to capturing Bendigo’s historic buildings and iconic landmarks in digital form.

I’ve also launched a new event series called Bit Sketchi Bendigo - you’re always welcome to join us.

Animals and nature often find their way into my work too, and I’m always open for commissions.

So, if you’re wandering through Bendigo, pop into the View St Artist Collective, I’d love for you to see what I’ve been creating 🩷

Open Tue-Sat 10-5pm, Sun 11-4pm.

I feel like we should meet!!!
I’m Frankie O — a colour-loving Bendigo artist. My work is all about joy, emotion, and storytelling. Often with a playful, heartfelt twist. I create vibrant, expressive pieces that celebrate the messy magic of being human.

You can find me as part of the View St Artist Collective, with my very own retail nook inside Valentine's Antique Gallery. It’s a little attic space above the stairs filled with colour and creativity.

Here I share original artworks, prints, and all sorts of arty treasures. Pop in and say hi when you can!

Open Tue-Sat 10-5pm
