Exhibition looks to future



By Kendra Spencer

Artwork produced by 81-year-old Daphne Mitchell is the latest exhibition at Warburton’s Water Wheel Gallery.
The exhibition is Daphne’s first in her 25 years of painting.
Gallery curator, Suyin Chan, said Daphne had never held a public exhibition and sale of her work before and it was therefore an exciting new experience for the octogenarian.
Titled “Here, Now and Tomorrow”, the exhibition showcases paintings that she has created over the past quarter century, clearly depicting the exploration of time and significant events throughout her years.
The work ranges from still life, to paintings of people in different places.
These paintings often consist of landscapes and scenes, including historically recognised areas such as Uluru, and Australian bushland.
Here, Now and Tomorrow is on exhibition until 12 July.
