Empty Parks, Empty Streets, Empty Cities by Carin Lavery

Features

ARTIST NOTES: Carlo Catani arrived in Australia from Italy in 1876. In the early 1900’s Catani planned the foreshore works up to Point Ormond and also designed landscaping of the Gardens which came to be known as Catani Gardens. The gardens are beautiful, sitting alongside the beach, with palm trees lining the avenue. During the summer the area hosts a community event nearly every weekend. A tranquil, historic part of St Kilda, perfect for honouring in watercolour.

ARTIST BIO

Carin is a visual artist, born and raised in England, now living in Melbourne Australia.  She is most widely known for her bold dynamic watercolours of our natural world. She also works with graphite and pastels and writes poetry.

Her work has been licensed for Christmas cards and has attracted international awards.  She has a strong commissions-following, exhibits regularly and sells internationally.

Her paintings are as diverse in style and subject as nature itself.  Realistic, impressionist or abstract, they communicate our world through watercolour – ranging from the land, sky, sea, animals and insects to people and communities.  

Carin raises community awareness of important subjects through her art.  She says “Art can be a powerful means of communication like no other”.  To date, sales of her paintings have raised $14,000 to support programs for refugees and people seeking asylum and victims and survivors of domestic violence.  Carin has also raised awareness of marginalised Australian Indigenous communities and traditional land management practices through her paintings.
