Weekly Favourite – “Fringed Umbrella” by John Earle
John Earle’s work often brings our gallery visitors to a standstill – they do a double take, some pull out their glasses and all stop to stare at the meticulous work that goes into creating his paintings. As one of Australia’s most renowned landscape painters, his work can be described as hyper realistic, and this weeks favourite is no exception.
