Catherine O'Donnell's exhibition

an installation shot of Catherine's show at the Albury  Regional Gallery

Fine arts teacher Catherine O'Donnell currently has a solo exhibition of drawings on at the Albury Regional Gallery. The exhibition is the result of a recent artist residency Catherine undertook in Venice.

"Venetian Visions at the Albury Regional Gallery (March 4-April 24) is an exhibition of drawings which explores the architecture, culture and history of the everyday Venice. I drew my inspiration and narrative for these works from the residential areas of Venice as well as the outlying island of Burano which lies in the northern part of the Venetian Lagoon, about 45 minutes from Venice by vaporetto (public ferry)."

Catherine's exhibition was produced as a result of a residency at the Scuola International di Grafica in Venice and at the conclusion of the Albury show, will tour the east coast of Australia. So if you can't make it to Albury, the exhibition may come closer to you!  Below are two of the drawings from the exhibition.
