Hello everyone, I’m at the NSW art gallery & I’m going to do a thread of some of the art I saw today!
I thought about @YvesRees here! A stunning painting! & wonderful grappling with big ideas. Also pink.
This was incredible. Beyond incredible. Divine, you might even say. Marikit Santiago is very talented.
This one is for @femmocollective , we are going to live together in this pink house. Lucy O’Doherty.
This painting gave me goosebumps. This style of painting recalled to me Albert Namajitra’s landscapes. Hubert Pareroultja.
I thought of @MsFriedmann here—look at this fire. John R Walker.
This triptych is really expansive & detailed & I thought of @wtb_Michael... details of birds to come. Julianne Ross Allcorn.
More bird details for @wtb_Michael
Also thought of you, @MondayStory
I’ve always loved the story of the Seven Sisters. In chinese culture we have a seven sisters story too. This painting by Nyunmiti Burton.
I love this small watercolour by Gino Palmieri, it makes me think of @brekfast_
A lovely self portrait by Tsering Hannaford. Anything that references Artemsia Gentileschi floats my boat.
Yoshio Honjo paints @adamliaw ! I love this painting so much. The energy in the piece, the colour, the sumi ink...

Super powerful painting by Tianli Zu of Tim Flannery. I love how her tender gaze is turned onto Tim who is in turn looking up at a lelo forest as if submerged.
This was amazing to behold in person. @meynewyatt self portrait.
This small self portrait by Yuri Shimmyo is my absolute favourite painting of today. Right down to the carnation milk tins on the shelf.
