[ s p a c e ] gallery is pleased to welcome the Catherine Mitchell Life Drawing Group for their annual art exhibition of figure studies and life drawings.
Studying the human anatomy in pencil, charcoal, watercolours and a variety of media, this exhibition is an opportunity for the public to admire some of Waiheke numerous talent, to learn about a seldom presented aspect of New Zealand contemporary art and to purchase affordable original artworks.
Many in the group are professional artists who practice life drawing as an exercise and others are passionate and committed hobbyists.

“I see drawing from life as a discipline which refines the complex observational process…”says Vern Tupper, a regular Life Line exhibitor.
Another long-time member is Mary Ferguson who is passionate yet constantly challenged by working with the complexities of the human form. “I see the figure as a landscape and the landscape in the figure.”

Exhibiting artists will include Rosemary Adler, Shonagh Byrne, Troy Carkeek, Olivier Duhamel, Mary Ferguson, Fiona Gallagher, Hank Lloyd, David Mason, Lyndsay Meager, and Vern Tupper amongst others.
Life Lines 2015 will be held in the gallery newly refurbished “small space” at the back of the courtyard.
