Reviewing the Situation
oil painting, 330 x 180 cm
Gallery Shop
1—31 March 2026
Benalla based artist Mervyn Beamish presents a selection of framed oil paintings and digital artworks in the Gallery Shop throughout March.
Mervyn works primarily in oil and digital art (not AI), using these mediums to explore texture, light and form in ways that bridge the tangible and the interpretive. This approach reflects a background in Art and Design and Production Design, where precision and emotional depth are central. Drawing from sketches and snapshots taken while travelling through inland Australia and overseas, the artist transforms the familiar into something evocative, inviting viewers to engage with the emotional and conceptual layers of each work.
All works in the Gallery Shop are available for purchase from Benalla Art Gallery Pop-Up, or by contacting the Gallery on: T 03 5760 2619 or gallery@benalla.vic.gov.au.
