Artist of the Month for April - Dayboro Art Gallery - Trevor Ryan (Painter)

Trevor Ryan, together with Maureen Trueman (refer to post below) is artist of the month at the Dayboro Art Gallery for April. Trevor has won many awards for his artworks and looks forward to dedicating more time to his painting. Trevor lives at Closeburn and has been a keen artist since his early childhood. Below is Trevor doing an art demonstration at the Gallery yesterday, Sunday, 18 April. Many visitors came in, all thrilled to have a cuppa and some nibblies and chat with our artists.




Tevor enjoys painting the Australian outback, country scenes and old buildings like the one below situated in West End, Brisbane. His more recent works are of old style homes in Paddington and Red Hill, Brisbane, and these are proving quite popular.

Tevor also likes to work with mono prints, pen and ink and to experiment in the impressionist style. He feels that the inspiration for his works related to the years he spent travelling and working in mining exploration, Swedish American Line and Ansett Airlines.

The Gallery is open 7 days a week, between 10am and 3pm so please drop in and view all the wonderful art.
