HEATHER BELL

A profile

Heather was born and grew up in Wagga Wagga, New South Wales. It was there that she went to school, married her husband, Ian, and had two sons. Country life was always to feature prominently as a subject in her paintings. Heather studied Illustration and Graphics at East Sydney Technical College.

Business requirements moved the family to Gosford , Cairns , Adelaide and then for a short time back to Wagga Wagga before moving on to the Gold Coast in 1988. In all of these places Heather was a highly respected art teacher.

In her earlier years, she was well-known for her watercolours , and in latter years has become equally well-known for her work in acrylics.

Heather has exhibited in over forty one-woman and group exhibitions including the Festival Exhibition at Nordlingen, Germany, in 1973 and the Country and Western Exhibition in Spokane, Washington , U.S.A in 1987.

Heather has been an invited member of The Australian Watercolour Institute since 1989 and is an invited Fellow of the Royal South Australian Society of Arts. She is represented in public and private collections in Australia, the U.S.A., England and West Germany.

LINDEN GALLERY.
Linden Galllery has been in operation since May 1994 when it opened with a very successful exhibition of Harold Lane's paintings.

Director, Jan Bulpitt, has been passionate about art all her life , but it was only after she had reared her family of three children that she felt courageous enough to start a venture promoting beautiful works of art. Another thing Jan is passionate about is the need for beautiful things in our lives. With so much ugliness in the world today , an ugliness that has also made its way into art and into music, Jan believes in the healing power of beauty.

Artists who exhibit regularly at LINDEN GALLERY include Gary Baker whose magnificent floral still life and landscapes in both oil and watercolour have been the source of great enjoyment for many years ; Robert Wilson , whose expertly executed paintings express his great love and understanding of the countryside in all its moods ; Eris Fleming , whose subject matter reflects his passion - inland Australia , its people and its history ; Colin Parker , who is best known for his figurative depiction of outback Australia in oils and his wife , Colleen , an impressionist painter in oils and some acrylics. Although now in his eighties , Harold Lane continues to produce superb representational paintings of Australia , its landscapes and its people.

The next exhibition at LINDEN GALLERY will open on Sunday 23rd July 2006 and will continue on a daily basis until Sunday 6th August. This exhibition will feature the work of Heather Bell. Heather is a highly respected art teacher in the Tweed area and is equally well- known for her watercolours and her acrylics. Born in Wagga Wagga , country life was always to feature as a subject in her paintings. Heather's shearing shed series provides a wonderful record of the days when Australia "rode on the sheep's back ".

LINDEN GALLERY features three exhibitions a year , each of which runs for two weeks on a daily basis. Outside these exhibition times , the gallery is open with a mixture of works at weekends, 11 a.m - 5 p.m. , or by appointment. As well as a wonderful collection of original paintings , the gallery features from time to time , some superb bronzes and ceramics . LINDEN GALLERY is situated at 1 Baanya Place , Bilambil, and Jan Bulpitt can be contacted on 07 5590 9313 or 0412 909 968 .
