SOLLY STUDIO—Artists & silversmith

141 Bland Road

WENDY & KEN SOLLY Ref 1

Ken learnt his Silversmithing skills in the 80”s at TAFE and Summer School. Since then he has had bursts of creativity, until he advertised his tools for sale but Thank goodness they did not sell , as he has had a renewed interest in the craft recently and is thoroughly enjoying it once more. Ken also paints with Acrylics. Ken also enjoyed attending class with Jean Arnold. Wendy has always had an interest in art teaching Primary School Art, painting back drops for theatre productions, even owning an Art Gallery! With the 70’s and 80’s being devoted to an interest in China Painting. Wendy's paintings are eclectic, she has worked with most mediums and feels she is still “a work in progress”! Painting excites her but find she doesn't always devote enough time to it. .

JANINE KOEFOED (Resident Artist)

This will be the first time the upstairs Private Gallery space will be opened to the public. This space is where Janine displays all her large oils, watercolours and fused glass panels. Having painted all her life Janine has a passion to capture the beauty and fragility of our great country in her pieces. Originally from Tasmania her pieces have a large variation in colour from the cool colours of her place of birth to the rich vibrant colours of the Northern WA, where she spend a lot of time traveling with her husband. In latter years Janine studied many different techniques under some of the best glass artists in the world , this has enabled her to create painting with just the use of glass.

cnr Avon Tce & Macartney St Ref 4

OPEN 10.00—3.00 PM Sat & Sun

JENI MCCOLL, Artist, Farmer.

I only resumed my Art journey a few years ago. Having

always drawn, but never painted. I now paint with acrylics

and pastels, and thoroughly enjoy it. I live on a family farm

out of York, so I am kept busy with the farm work, and fit in

painting when I can. There are so many wonderful things to

paint around our farm. I get inspiration from the ever

changing landscapes and animals on my farm, and from the

surrounding York countryside. I particularly love the bush,

the colours at different times of the day and year.

opportunity to peruse my passion for wood carving and the

creation of other rustic wooden pieces further. When creating

these pieces I like to keep the natural shape and look of the

wood. My work is varied and includes signs ,serving platters

and other interesting items. All my pieces are handmade and a

one of a kind in design.

PATCHWORK on AVON

Now at 82 Avon Tce Ref 6

Specializing in quality custom quilts & bespoke handcrafted items, with over 40 years experience. In the 80’s I opened my first shop and have owned and operated several since. Six years ago I saw the need for a shop like mine in the Wheatbelt so took the leap and made the move to York. Because the business has grown so much I have recently relocated to a larger shop in town while still remaining on Avon Tce
