New exhibition from Orange Art Society feature artist John Nevalainen

Originally from Finland, John Nevalainen, came to Australia 27 years ago and has a background in medicine and dentistry.

Over the years, John has acquired technical skills from a variety of artistic short courses, workshops and one-on-one masterclasses with professional artists.

He has a particular interest in the southwestern USA and returns there most years to photograph and gain inspiration for his painting. His latest exhibition reflects this interest.

The exhibition will be on display until 8 November, but you can come join John for an official opening and special viewing of his exhibition on Friday 25 October at 6pm.

The exhibition is on display at the Art Rooms (entry located at the rear of the Woolworth’s carpark near Harris Farm) come and join John for a chat, some nibbles and a glass of wine.

Also now on display is a new exhibition of work by Orange Art Society members.

The exhibition will run for two months (until 7 December) and all works are for sale at reasonable prices.

Admission is free and the exhibition is open most days. If the door is open and the banner flying, come on in!

Next month’s feature artists will be Sandra Wenban and Wanda Driscoll; their exhibition will run from 9 November to 7 December.
