Middle Park - Fine Art Gallery & Studio

4th Annual Exhibition

November 2003

I would like to personally extend my invitation to you to attend Middle Park Gallery's annual end of year exhibition. It is with great pleasure that we hold the exhibition in West Melbourne where the space, I'm sure will exceed your expectations in size, dimensions and atmosphere. The parking is free and ample even though it is right in the centre of the city, not far from Spencer St. Station.

This year the artwork will include a series of sublime charcoal nudes by Judith Stoney as well as a triptych of canvases depicting the fun and joy of the Luna Park carousel...the lucky buyer will indeed have a treasure on their hands. I present a series of ten 2 x 1 metre canvases that reveal experiences in the bushfires and their legacy on the landscape, at Wulgulmerang Station in February this year. They are in no way a romantic depiction of bushfire but a gritty and expressive series that communicates a rural experience that is unmistakeably Australian.

Elizabeth Stoney 2003, 'Melbourne Christmas', gouache, ceramic enamel and metallic pigments on cotton 60 x 45 cm {used in full colour wrap-around December issue of the Melbourne Anglican Newspaper}$5000

I look forward to perhaps seeing you there on Friday December 5th or at the preview if you are anxious to have first option to buy.
