'Beneath the Surface' Exhibition by Ros Charron and Judy Rogers
Collaboration between Ros Charron and Judy Rogers. Acrilyc and mixed media paintings The waterscapes that are presented in this exhibition have nothing to do with realistic representation even though there is some visual reference to nature. The water in the paintings is a metaphor for the mind. These paintings are intended to be an exploration of the subconscious and mental perceptions and what part these play in our everyday life and interactions with the external world. Ros wrote: 'The new pictures are sort of whimsical. One painting has a large elephant at the bottom of the pond in the background , with a girl swimming blissfully ignorant of the elephant's presence... and the title? No prize for guessing it..." Ignoring the Elephant within! " I am interested in how we perceive things and to what extent we judge things we come in contact with by social conditioning.'
Artist talk: Saturday 21 Nov 3pm. Come and meet the artists.

'Reconnection' Sean Conway Solo Exhibition
Echoes of moments passed' An exhibition of new works by Sean Conway My journey as an artist continues to explore themes of transformation... and as how things change on different levels - evolve, grow, decay, disappear and regenerate or are reborn. The people, events and things that are important to us all, the emotions felt and shared at different times of our lives - these are reflected in the colours, shapes/patterns, textures and natural forms used in my work. A conscious effort is made to reflect on the creative wonders and beauty of our world rather than the opposites. The memories recalled of what has passed, is witnessed and experienced directly, the music that resonates with me during the creative processes - all continue to inspire different ways of sharing personal experience through my work. Enjoy.

'Wot Th' Linda King Solo Exhibition
Oil paintings. Inspiration came from a photo of an emu with such a quizzical (wot th') expression that I found was such fun to paint and capture it's essence. A friend loved it and bought it so I painted another for myself and then another in different colours. I love colour and played with combinations for background and feathers, it was such fun I kept going with the view to find a place large enough to hang them all together - initially for my own entertainment. I love that all these paintings can be so different yet from the same photo, each one with a unique look and 'wot th' name.

'Weird & Wonderful' JCAA Collaborative Exhibition
Joondalup's blend(er) gallery is hanging a "Weird and Wonderful Show" from 22 September until 4 October. By using unusual media and esoteric artistic devices such as chance, the eight participating artists aim to push their creative boundaries into the weird and wonderful.
· Sheila Ayling and Lesley Byfield are exhibiting sculptures. Lesley says that she will present fibrous, fun culinary delights in bright fauvist colours. Sheila's theme is the creation of tactile objects, from recycled material. In this way, she employs the element of chance, of unpredictable transformation.· Judy Rogers and Michael Nielsen are setting up installations, an art form seldom seen at the blend(er). Judy's expresses thoughts about popular culture, body image and the opposing characteristics of strength and vulnerability, of innocence and knowledge. She also employs symbolism by expressing sentimentality as intimacy and domesticity as melodrama. · Underwater photographer Eva Boogaard shoots ultra-close-ups of marine life, seeking to render a particular deep sea softness in colour and texture that defines them as God's creations.· Suzanne Ives in two- dimensional work of coral reefs, defines a fragility and beauty in spite of the ominous threat of decay. She also wants to inspire the viewer with thoughts of an opportunity to transform reality through her crop circle imagery.· Sean Conway says his two-dimensional work speaks of how we can look at the world in different ways and that his emotive symbols, shapes, colours and textures form images not only of beautiful transformation but also of decay and destruction.· In her two dimensional work Marilyn Hamilton celebrates the use of chance to create her evocative images of transformation, fragility, fragmentation and decay. She says, 'Even decay has its own fragile beauty, as does memory.'Open: Tue-Fri 10am-2pm, Wed-Sat 7-9pm.15-20 Sept 2009

'Ningaloo Design - Coastal Lifestyle' Justin Bauer Solo Exhibition
Justin Bauer photographic solo exhibition. www.ningaloocoastalimages.com.au Justin wrote: "As a Photographer and Graphic Designer I have passionately and steadily gone about documenting and photographing various landscape/seascape/marine photography subjects in western Australia and beyond, especially the Ningaloo Reef and Outback coast (Northwest coastal fringe) a very special place for me and quite close to my heart, this is where I grew up into a young adult, surfing/diving/ camping and exploring with my family and friends. This coming exhibition displays some of the images gathered over some time such as coastal reef / surf scenes, landscapes/marine creatures/land creatures, terrestrial Australia, animal behavior, aerial photography and communities. Many photos I feel are of our important natural history, and hopefully the images can be appreciated as a small snapshot of WA's coastal lifestyle culture and the terrestrial/animal/marine diversity throughout Western Australia that we should all protect, preserve and respect. The works displayed will vary in size from framed gloss and mettalic prints to large canvas prints with smaller matted prints and images on various selected mediums. I hope that if you do visit the blend(er) gallery and this coming exhibition that you enjoy the displayed images and I look forward to seeing you all there..."

'Textural and Colour Exploration' Exhibition
Artists Joyce Hewton (mixed media - acrylics) Micky Choo (mixed media - acrylics) Guest Artist: Bocky Tandiono (photography) This exhibition is the first collaboration between the three artists. Acrylics on canvas end photographic prints.
Jovce Hewton: Creative expression has always been a big part of Joyce's life. Born in Singapore, she studied a year of architecture before pursuing an education in mass communication. Being exposed to the world of mass communication meant being able to dabble in the creative aspects of photojournalism, television journalism, advertising and other subjects. Joyce has worked as an art director of television commercials, as well as account manager and creative copywriter of an advertising firm. When she move to Perth five years ago, Joyce was able to develop her creative skills in another dimension. Using mostly acrylic paints and mediums, Joyce loves creating art that draws attention with its colours and texture. Unlike her previous occupations, Joyce works for no one and enjoys the "no holds barred" freedom that painting gives her. Joyce treats her art-making as an emotional outlet, and hence evey piece of her work is meaningful to her. Joyce is also the owner of an online mixed media art and craft supplies store that promotes artistic expression amongst crafters. Joyce lives with her husband, two children, a dog and two birds. Micky Tandiono-Choo: Micky is a passionate painting aficionado, having started painting from an early age. With a background in architecture, she brings along with her years of expertise in form, space and order. Her past career as an expatriate architect in Jakarta saw her working as the right-hand person of the late, high-profile San Diego architect, Randy Darlymple. As Project Manager of several resort developments and multi-million dollar residences in Indonesia, she has designed everything from hotels to the nitty-gritty bits like iron-wrought balustrade, mouldings, cornices, etc. Since returning to Perth, Micky has devoted herself to her family, preferring to work on an ad-hoc basis from home and honing her skills in the art and crafts area. Micky is a regular contributor to the Joondalup Council's annual art exhibitions, and has sold her paintings in the process.

'MAKING MUSIC' Exhibition
New paintings by Sean Conway
Sean Conway's work plays with the energy of life, light and colour ? and the movement and music they make together. Abstract ideas about his love of beauty and balance in nature on various levels have been explored and have evolved over forty years of artistic practice. His use of wave forms and 'key lines' reflects the rhythm and order within the seeming chaos of 'worlds within worlds'. Many of the shapes and forms are symbolic of what has been seen, sensed and experienced on different levels of reality. The harmonics of number, form, colour and sound are expressed in many pieces ? in a continual search of finding some balance between our scientific and spiritual consciousness. The work is always about feelings of wonder and joy that resonate, and help colour our lives. An effort to capture those special but transient moments of pleasure and transcendence; simply being in the moment of enjoyment, and having the freedom of spontaneity in expression ? is behind everything he does. Open: Tue-Fri 10am-2pm, Fri-Sun 7-9pm17-28 July 2007

'Liaisons' Exhibition
Prints, drawings and paintings by Aloma Berg, Helen Bodycoat, Adele Discerni.
Three artists explore the elemental relationship of a sense of place. Adelle Discerni looks at her experience from a recent trip to Shanghai s a city of conflicting extremes. These extremes are represented in the streets, its people and their ideals, and of course its architecture. On one hand the city is a realisation of its romantic, harmonic eastern ideals whilst at the same time contrasted against this idyllic representation are the ever increasing and chaotic technological systems that are fast over taking the city. These photos of shanghai try to capture these differences through a pictorial representation of a society trying to find a balance between two extremes appearing and surviving along side each other in Shanghai's modern landscape. Helen Bodycoat's 'Kumarina Landscape' works compare the notion of a print in contemporary visual life with that of painting onto canvas with light. The photographic image often records moments of a journey. These point and shoot images depict moments in time, offering glimpses of the landscape around Kumarina. Here the land is seen fleetingly and from a distance, which resonates with the memory of journeys made whilst travelling in a vehicle. Aloma Berg examines our suburban connection to our decreasing natural flora and our ever increasing capacity to conquer and divide. A focus on the contrast and conflict between the macro and the micro of local environment. Open: Tue-Fri 10am-2pm, Wed-Sun 7-9pm6 - 12 March, 2007
