“I want to be a drawing and painting artist. This is my life. I like to paint animals and people. Painting with my brushes makes me feel calm.” Brooke McQueen

The Cocoon Gallery for Emerging Artists is proud to present Brooke McQueen in her exhibition Animals in Aqua.
Brooke works mostly independently on her fine art projects; her main interest is in photo-realistic painting.
She browses the Internet looking for pictures, then she digitally prints and traces them by hand on her canvas and paints them with acrylic.
With an intensive and empowering learning journey, Brooke is always developing new skills with art instructed sessions. She has her own studio space, and is always developing new paintings. Animals in Aqua will run from 2nd November until 23rd December.
The Cocoon Gallery for Emerging Artists is located in the foyer of the Margaret River Library and is easily accessible.
