I am delighted to be part of this years brisbanerotaryartshow. I attended the artists event yesterday with my beautiful friend Catherine Rashford. I caught up with Dr Bill Platz, the fabulous life drawing tutor from QCAD, who had the unenviable job of judging the show - congratulations to the award winners, great work! I also was delighted to catch up with the lovely linda_zucco. It was a great afternoon out. If you are in the city, it is a good opportunity to see work from some of the regions best artists - open week days until 18th July.

Only 3 weeks left to add one of the 100 Days series to your collection. They will not be offered again at this 2020 price. I love painting the different surfaces, here are a selection of the shiny red ones.

These two paintings shown here in room settings are ready to go to the Brisbane Rotary Art Show in the Central Plaza foyer, Brisbane from the 14th to the 25th July 2025. The paintings are the 1980s and 1920s from the Cup of Tea and Biscuits series. If you are in the city, this show is always worth a visit.

New release coming, for a limited time - only in August - eight small still life works will be available on my website, here are some detail shots of a couple of the paintings. a preview catalogue will be available my newsletter subscribers. visit my website to sign up.

I spent today in the studio drawing up a new still life, I have been playng with the set up since Monday. I had a fantastic day out yesterday sketching the urban landscape in Southbank with the talented stuartmeyerplath. This loose watercolour sketch was the result.
I did discover one problem with rearranging my studio - I struggle to remember the new home for some items leading to extended searches! Though sometimes I have discovered the items have been borrowed by the family. 🤣 #juliecanefineart #brisbaneartist #australianartist #urbansketching #fineart #outinnature #localartist #watercolour #stilllife

I know I haven’t been posting much, life with two athletes in the family is a little crazy!
At Easter I got the family together and after a struggle we finally erected the miss-named “Easy Shed” which has helped with storage - much needed!
Then after a week finishing the sanding and polishing of the table tops, I have finished the studio refit, though there is a bit of sorting out still to do. I am super excited about this!
This week I have stretched some canvases, added a couple of layers of gesso to them and got the go ahead for the commission I am working on. That is now drawn up and I will start the first layer of painting this arvo. Have a fabulous weekend everyone. 🥰
