Betty Searle
Spending her earliest years on a rural property in the district of Roma, Queensland, Betty’s
appreciation and mastery of the special tones and colours of the landscape developed during
this time. Working mainly in oils, Betty’s underpainting of pure colours produces a vitality on the
different surfaces with which she works. Betty’s success as a regional artist has seen her win
many awards throughout the state. Her work is retained both in private and public collections,
with her early work Pear Clearing being recently included in a Western Downs Regional Council
Show Habitat: Environmental Art of the Darling Downs
Lisa West
Growing up in regional Queensland, Lisa now lives in Brisbane with her family. She has been
painting since the birth of her first child, eighteen years ago. Her chosen media are oils and
acrylics, painting both representational and non-representational works. Lisa has always been
interested in colour and forms, citing her mother Betty as an important inspiration for her
painting.
