Diana Laidlaw
Emmeline Khor
Emmeline’s work is inspired by the
beauty of life, encompassing nature in
all its forms. She is a full time Adelaide
artist who has studied at the Adelaide
Central School of Art with her focus on
contemporary tonal realistic paintings.
Her current interests include still life,
revelling in the wondrous shapes and
sensual forms of autumn fruits such
as figs and pomegranates. She is
influenced by childhood memories,
dance, poetry and music. She has
produced many works for private
collections.
John Lacey
John is a self-taught artist who has
been painting professionally in oil since
2004 after many years experience
in other mediums. Painting both
impressionistic and contemporary

Blackwood, Clare and Flagstaff Hill
Rotary Exhibitions.

Janice Lane
Diana Laidlaw
One of the joys of Diana’s life “post
politics” has been the opportunity
to pursue her long-standing interest
in mosaics. Since 2007 she has
staged three sell-out solo exhibitions,
plus completed a steady stream
of commissioned work. Most
recently, she has loved exploring
the mosaic medium as a platform
to celebrate cherished poets and
philosophers.
Janice Lane
Janice Lane graduated with a Bachelor
in Visual Arts in 2007 from the Adelaide
Centre of Arts and is currently studying
her Postgraduate Diploma in visual arts
with UniSA. Practicing from her studio
in Piccadilly, Janice was a finalist for
the 2010 Lethbridge 10,000 smallscale
art awards in Brisbane. Janice
brings resonance of touch and sound
to her paintings that have memories
embedded deep within them. By using
old sheet music and Pianola rolls they
trigger personal and second-hand
memories for herself and others.

Simone Lettice
Cat Leonard
Cat Leonard is an award winning artist
who paints portraits, animals, cars,
people and things in her unique ‘pop
expressionistic’ style. Her paintings are
exhibited in various galleries and shops
around Adelaide including the ‘Red
Opus Art Space”, and ‘Nadia’s House if
Serendipity”
Simone Lettice
Since her sell-out debut exhibition
‘Emergence’ (2007) Simone has
featured in media interviews/articles,
filled numerous commissions and
participated in successive (selected)
group exhibits. Long fascinated by the
abstraction and stylization of form,
Simone employs a characteristically
economical use of sculptural line in
paintings at once deeply sensitive and
vibrantly bold.
