Peter Lawson: Retrospect 4 December 2015 – 7 February 2016

Peter Lawson explores over 40 years of his professional arts practice in Retrospect.

Lawson has an established reputation for his fine oil paintings depicting iconic scenes and locations from his travels around the world, as well as in his home city of Townsville.

The exhibition features his intimate observations, illustrations of Henry Lawson’s written works, and a selection of new works that mark a departure from his familiar traditional realist style.
