She has won many awards and continues to exhibit.This exhibition is a collection of expressive landscapes, abstracts,and figurative paintings in watercolour, acrylic and oil, Dorothy loves atmosphere and draws her inspiration from the rich history of the landscape. Natural scenery and wild places restore her spirits and sense of well-being. There is nothing more therapeutic for her than a walk in the bush with the scent of the gums in the wind and the sound of magpies, kookaburras and the chirping of the blue wrens.
Dorothy teaches art, specialising in transparent watercolours. For the last 18 years she has been offering classes and workshops for beginners and the experience
