NORRIS INGRISCH

Artist

'I am a graphic designer who is currently ending my career of 25 years. I would now like to pursue my creative ability with more traditional mediums like paint and brush. I mainly work with water based acrylic and oil colour. I am especially interested in pursuing my life long conceptual theories of that, we are all just energy, living inside energy. My task moving forward, is to illustrate my theories.'

KIAN BATES

Photographer

Kian established Raw Edge Photography to capture and share breathtaking moments inspired by our natural surroundings, we hope you enjoy our photography. Starting with a waterproof camera in high school, Kian has since learnt to develop his craft by continuously experimenting with a series of cameras and lenses. Kian is constantly amazed by the view from behind the lens, both above and below the surface. Capturing the ever changing light of sunrises, sunsets and storms then turning them into purchasable art. Barrelling waves, backwash, vortexes, wedges, micro-waves, good clarity and stormy swells also make for a great session. Pacific Palms is the perfect spot for Kian, Ashley and their family. Being surrounded by such an incredible coastline means there is a never ending source of photographic inspiration and opportunity.

JEREMY DAVIS

Mixed Medium Artist

'My artworks and practice are inspired by nature and the amazing creatures that we share this world with! Especially the underwater world that I grew up loving. I like to use in combination with my paintings and drawings natural materials that I have found adding a 3D effect to my artworks.'

HELGA VISSER

 Artist

Helga studied at East Sydney Technical College and with fine artist and sculptor Arthur Murch, where she was also studio assistant for some years. During this time she assisted with the mural painting at the overseas terminal, Circular Quay, Sydney.
She has worked as commercial artist in Australia, Indonesia,
Holland and Hong Kong and is now retired from commercial work to concentrate on art that she loves. Portraiture was a particular
interest, and nature has always been an inspiration, especially light and patterns. She works mainly in oil paint and pastels. The area of the mid-north coast, where she now lives has inspired much of her recent work.
Some years ago she took up clay sculpting, and has produced a number of prizewinning works. Her sculptures mostly comment on the mores and trends of today’s society.
In 2011 her first children’s picture book “The Bush Concert “was published by Omnibus Books.  The book has now been adapted for a musical presentation by the Adelaide Symphony Orchestra.
