Looking through artists’ eyes

More than 230 people enjoyed the art on offer at an annual Noble Park exhibition.
The 11th Noble Park Community Centre Art Show on Saturday 15 and Sunday 16 October featured hundreds of paintings and sculptures.
Organiser Shelly Kemp said the turnout and community response were great.
“It’s probably the most people we’ve had through on our weekend in a while,” she said.
Repeat entrant Isobel Hamill won the open section with her landscape oil painting called Approaching Storm.
“She was really excited about it, she even sold a couple of her works as well,” Ms Kemp said.
The show also featured a tribute to Noble Park botanical artist and show founding member Fred Woodman, who died on 16 September.
“We hope to continue a tribute to him throughout the years and possibly do some sort of award that symbolises him and his work,” Ms Kemp said.
She thanked the show’s volunteers, who “are probably the best thing about our show”.
