‘Seasons of the Riverland’

The Loxton Art Group exhibition tells the story of our seasons and rhythm of Riverland life. The artworks are imaginatively created with paint, rusty iron, clay sculpture, and photographs. Each Pocket Gallery is different and exciting and celebrates the Riverlands cyclical nature and vibrant spirit. Part of Loxton for 20 years, the group is a collective of developing artists that paint with acrylic, watercolour and oils, sculpt with polymer clay, weld with rusty iron and photograph our beautiful community.

United by creative thinking and a passion for artistic exploration, members embrace diversity. Together, they celebrate the Riverland and share unique perspectives and talents to inspire the community.

Artists: Lyn Anstey, Maryann Lindquist, Julie Noble, June Howlett, Karl Raams, Susan Dixon, Maxine Zimmerman, Jenni Colebeck, Wanda Hermann, Bec Shaw, Tammy Hamood and Stephen.
