SUMMARY:'ICONS' The Twelve Apostles and Beyond
DESCRIPTION:This is a collection of paintings I have painted mostly ‘en plein air’ on site at and near the The Twelve Apostles. \nI have visited these majestic peaks and surrounding coastline several times over the years and have always be awestruck at its beauty and majesty. The last visit fI made only recently for some reason had quite a visual impact on me and inspired me to put together a series of works of this much loved area of the coast. I really like the interesting abstract shapes and design of the stacks\, especially when backlit by the sun and they were exciting to paint in all their interesting ruggedness. And of course who doesn’t love the colours of the ocean – which seem to change at every incoming wave. Spending time here painting was a delight and I came home invigorated to paint a few larger works in the studio.

SUMMARY:Ben Winspear - A Day With The Artist
DESCRIPTION:“Ben Winspear – A Day With The Artist” \nAn immersive art experience at Lon Retreat\, Point Lonsdale \nJoin us at the breathtaking Lon Retreat for Layers\, an art exhibition celebrating the intersection of art and nature at the Lon Retreat estate in Victoria’s Bellarine Peninsula. This intimate showcase features the stunning landscape works of Ben Winspear\, whose brush captures the elemental beauty of Point Lonsdale’s rugged coastline. \nWander through the retreat’s serene gallery spaces\, then step outside at 11 am as Ben leads a plein air demonstration\, painting directly from the windswept scenery that inspired his work. Guests are encouraged to ask questions and engage throughout — a rare opportunity to witness the creative process up close. \nAt 2 pm\, gather by the fire for a relaxed fireside chat and drink. This relaxed fireside chat will explore Ben’s inspirations\, his artistic journey\, the stories behind his work\, and his unique approach to painting en plein air\, with space for questions and conversation. \nAll proceeds raised from purchased drinks at the fireside chat will be donated to Bellarine Landcare. A charity that aims to preserve\, protect and enhance the natural environment of the Bellarine Peninsula. \nTo find out more about Bellarine Landcare\, click here. \nWhether you’re an art lover\, nature seeker\, or looking to deepen your artistic knowledge\, you are invited to slow down\, look closer\, and feel the landscape in every brushstroke. \nThis is an open event so everyone is more than welcome to attend – no need to purchase tickets. \nLook forward to seeing you all there for a brilliant day!

SUMMARY:'Near and Far' - Solo Exhibition
DESCRIPTION:“This is a collection of works mostly painted on location with some larger works made in my studio. Painting as often as I can where work and leisure take me\, I find painting en plein air grounds and centers me in my life\, helping me to be physically present to the world around me and enabling me to share with others how I feel about the places I visit. \nThe beauty… the patterns of light and shade… the ‘feel’ of a place… from Queensland to the south coast of Victoria\, from the Flinders Ranges of South Australia to the Philippines… from the city to the country – ‘Far and wide’.”
