There’s a common misconception that fine art is only for those with deep pockets. But art isn’t about wealth, status or how much you can afford to spend. 🖼️

Art is about connection! It’s about standing in front of a painting and feeling something. Appreciating the talent, patience and creativity that went into bringing it to life.

Fine art isn’t just for collectors. It’s for anyone who appreciates beauty, creativity and the stories art can tell.

Bay of Whales Gallery open 10am - 4pm, Thurs to Sun. 🎨

The Importance of Light and Shadow 💡

Ever wondered what makes a realistic painting look almost like a photograph? One of the secrets is light and shadow! 🤫

A skilled realist artist doesn’t just paint what they see. They carefully observe how light falls on a subject, creating depth, texture and dimension.

It’s often the subtle shadows and highlights that bring a painting to life.

Come out this weekend and see how I’ve used light and shadow in my paintings, up close! 🎨💅

🎨 ART TO LOVE. ART TO COLLECT. 🖼️

A great artwork can be more than something beautiful for your home — it can also become increasingly collectible over time.

With more than 30 years as a professional wildlife artist, Brett Jarrett has built a distinctive body of work recognised in Australia and internationally.

Each original is unique, making quality, provenance and scarcity important considerations for collectors.

While no artwork comes with a guarantee of future value, there’s one rule worth remembering:

Buy art you love first.
Let its future value be the bonus.

A good realist artist does more than make something look like a photograph. They make it look convincingly real, while still feeling like a piece of art. 🎨

With wildlife realism in particular, understanding the animal anatomy matters enormously. A skilled wildlife artist captures its posture, movement, character and environment—not simply its physical appearance.

That’s often the difference between “that looks exactly like a bird” and “that feels like a living bird.” 🦅

Come and see my latest artworks, Thursday to Sunday, from 10am - 4pm. 🤎

Happy to get the news that my pelican painting will be heading to the Holmes Art Prize in October as a finalist in the exhibition.
