Her works are instantly recognisable: expressive compositions layered with energetic brush strokes, bold palettes, and a tactile richness that invites you to step closer. Each piece feels like a memory alive, vibrant and deeply felt.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI paint very expressive paintings inspired by time I spend in the natural landscape and travelling. My work is characterised by very vibrant colours, expressive brush marks and texture.\u201d<br \/>\n\u2014 Cassandra Dove<\/p>\n<p>As part of receiving the home.byholly Capital Arts Patrons Organisation Grant, Cassandra will soon embark on a five-day art camp with acclaimed Canberra artist and educator <a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/lynneflemons\/?hl=en\">Lynne Flemons<\/a>. This immersive experience will take her deep into the landscape to explore new techniques, new rhythms, and new ways of seeing.<\/p>\n<p>For Cassandra, the opportunity is both creatively expansive and personally meaningful.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe\u2019re going to be going into the landscape and learning new techniques, which is going to provide me with a lot of new inspiration\u2026 and then have the opportunity to come back and continue painting into the evening, which I don\u2019t usually get as a busy mum.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The residency-style retreat offers something rare: uninterrupted time to move directly from inspiration to creation. No pause, no shift back into daily life, just openness, exploration and energy flowing straight onto the canvas.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s going to be a really lovely experience, to go straight from the inspiration to the painting.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>We are incredibly proud to support Cassandra through the Capital Arts Patrons Organisation Grant and excited to watch this next chapter unfold. Her exhibition, Behind the View, is a beautiful testament to her talent, vision and dedication, and we cannot wait to see how this upcoming experience shapes the work that follows.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Exploring colour, expression and the landscapes behind the view We recently visited the Belconnen Arts Centre to meet with the wonderfully talented Cassandra Dove, recipient of the home.byholly Capital Arts Patrons Organisation Grant.
