Portraits of the Hinterland
Angus Chugg | 18 Feb to 12 April | Maroochydore Library Artspace
Caloundra Regional Gallery in collaboration with Sunshine Coast Libraries proudly presents the next exhibition for the Maroochydore Library Artspace.
Over the last two years Angus Chugg has been painting landscapes of Maleny and the Blackall Range. Chugg grew up in Maleny and currently works in bush regeneration. Chugg’s art practice has become a way to share some of the beauty observed from having spent a lot of time out in paddocks or in forests.
“My work is an effort to capture everyday examples of life in the Sunshine Coast Hinterland. I work quickly and spontaneously, aiming for a sense of energy in the brushwork to portray townships, landscapes, and animals in a modern way. I try to keep my style as modern as I can, while keeping the form of what I am trying to capture.” – Angus Chugg
Chugg's work has been awarded first prizes in the Kenilworth ArtsFest 2024 Gourmet Food Fest and Mary Valley Art Festival 2024 Landscape Award.
The opening event will be held on Thursday 20th of February at 10am. Entry is free and all are welcome.
