For many years, we've had the pleasure of working with landscape artist, Allison Taplin. Her stunning interpretations of Australia's vast and magnificent skies have made her one of our most beloved artists. With each brushstroke, Allison captures the serene beauty of the open sky, drawing viewers into a tranquil world where the peaceful expanse of blue seems to stretch endlessly. Her art invites us to pause, breathe, and experience the quiet stillness of nature.

First & Last is Allison’s first solo exhibition with us here at The Corner Store Gallery. We invite you to take a walk through Allison’s peaceful paddocks with us this October 9th - 19th. Join us for drinks with the artist on Saturday October 12th from 2pm and find out more about what makes Allison tick.

Karlie's work is a masterful interplay of composition, texture, pattern, and materialism. Her distinct voice in the realm of modern textile art is remarkable. This solo exhibition is the result of her outstanding talent being recognized by our bi-annual Mini Series Art Prize in 2023. Selected unanimously by our panel of judges—Anne Masters, Larissa Blake, and myself—we are proud to present Unseen by Karlie Simring.

Sarah Montgomery is a printmaker of all methods.  She uses many different plates and layers to create her artworks building beautiful depth and texture.  I met Sarah at her gorgeous, breezy home in Dee Why to see the new prints making their way to Orange for Floating Land, a collaborative exhibition with fellow artist Fiona Chandler.

I visited local sculptor Chris Cowell at her fabulous yurt home studio to find out more about her upcoming exhibition at the gallery. Chris is a master of clever, simple conposition, see for youself.

Tracy Dickason is a Sydney based ceramicist and illustrator with THE MOST AMAZING SPACE to work in!  Her bright and airy family apartment sits atop a sandstone cliff just above a beautiful Australian beach!  Warm sunlight floods the corner in which Tracy works.  Her delicate porcelain vessels and sculptures adorn a wooden chest while half-finished illustrations and drawings are scattered about the room.

Alexandra Frasersmith uses the most beautiful coloured glass to create her clever textural pieces.  Deep cobalt blues fade into pale turquoise and range through to orange and purple.  She creates functional objects as well as more abstract sculptural pieces.  All of the above will be on display as part of her new exhibition Cast Emotion at The Corner Store Gallery this Spring.

I visited Ruth Stone at her beautiful home and studio in Carcoar NSW.  See all the photos from the studio shoot and read about Ruth's practice.
