Still-life painting was at the core of Margaret Preston’s practice. Throughout her career, Preston continually revisited the genre, as she painted bold, intensely coloured and locally grounded arrangements of flowers often cultivated and sourced from her own garden. Preston’s paintings and prints of still-life arrangements are emblematic of a moment of extraordinary innovation in Australian art history.
Taking inspiration from the Margaret Preston exhibition, Wadawurrung artist Dr Deanne Gilson, whose artwork also features in the exhibition, leads a still-life painting course using ochre and acrylic paint, inspired by both artists.
The course will begin with a tour of Margaret Preston with exhibition curator Beckett Rozentals, followed by a practical painting workshop where Gilson will introduce her practice and guide participants through a step-by-step process to create their own original artwork depicting bush flowers and textiles created by Gilson.
