18.3.11 Dreams and Reflections

After the success of her first solo exhibition

at 'The Dog’s Bar' in Melbourne last year,

Dynamic Drawing student Liz Friend presents

Dreams and Reflections

at Lismore's Serpentine Community Gallery.

This exhibition showcases a series of oil and ink drawings.

The works are characterized by spacious composition,

sparse use of colour and loose flowing line

that combine to create dream-like landscapes which

reflect both the internal and external worlds the artist inhabits.

Formerly focused on ceramics and sculpture,

Liz Friend found the confidence to draw in

renowned Dynamic Drawing teacher Ron Curran’s classes,

where she discovered a language she feels

is both authentic and unique to her expression.

Ron has described her work as,

“…dream-like, penetrating and translucent.”
