Gabby's watercolours are intricate portrayals of blended cultures and beautiful objects. Locally grown fruit and flowers picked and bought near-by are rendered with warmth and intimacy, forming a conversation between the rarefied, patterned flora that decorates the Chinese ceramics and batik fabrics within her images.

Gabby studied ceramics at Otago Polytechnic School of Fine Art from 1984-86, before travelling through South East Asia and then moving to London in the 1990s. Gabby's love of colour has endured, and her ceramicist background is evident in her use of pattern in her works. Gabby's negation of depth through the use of pattern means that it is often easy to imagine many of her works adorning a beautiful vase or bowl. Gabby has been working chiefly in watercolour and ink since 1988.

In this series of works, Gabby has melded Chinese representational traditions with batik patterns, and birds and fruit from her life in New Zealand, England and Australia.

My name is Scott Harrison and I live in Merewether, NSW in Australia.

The genesis of daily salt was the 1st of April 2014. This was the first day I moved back to Newcastle for a number of years living in the middle of Sydney surrounded by concrete, working in an office, and breathing in everything but clean air. The moment I moved back to this great town where I grew up I was immediately inspired to reinvigorate the happiness I get from photography with my love of the ocean, the beach, and everything associated with the lifestyle surrounding it. Salt air and saltwater have countless benefits to the body and mind and whether you experience it through surfing, swimming, laying on the beach, walking along a coastal track, or any other way. I believe there are happiness, healthiness, and peacefulness directly related to the time spent near or in the ocean.



My daily salt starts at 5 am every day where I will be found wandering around any one of Newcastle's world-class beaches taking photographs, jumping in the ocean, drinking a coffee, and generally just being grateful to live in such an amazing place.

Reed Knauth is a trained watercolor fine artist, textile designer and graphic designer and founder of Rosebud Studios - a haven for bohemian inspired original artworks, prints and home decor goods. She has been creating art from a very young age and has a dual degree in Graphic Design + Fine Art. 
 
When creating, Reed works best in an intuitive method of painting that evokes a certain amount of energy, movement and delight. She does this mainly through the use of eccentric and vibrant color palettes, gestural marks, complicated patterns and various texture applications. As a textile designer she looks heavily to radical trends in fashion design and the natural patterns in nature to inspire much of her content. Her focus stays with natural, organic, fluid elements that have the ability to warp and evolve. Her newest landscape and floral collections practice Japanese aesthetics and explore the principles of negative space - leaving the work slightly unfinished, thus inviting the viewer into the painting to actively complete it. 

She currently lives and works in Atlanta, Georgia. 

I’m a self-taught artist based in Istanbul. My art journey started at an early age with realistic portraits, and I began to learn the rules by myself. Now, I try to break them like a pro.

The art I create depends on my mood and my energy. I love to express emotions with lines and shapes, and do not advocate a particular style. 

A paragraph in a book, a trip, a relationship, or even a glance can inspire me. And, I turn these inspirations into stories that I can tell you with lines and shapes.
