Ballarat-based artist Cathy Brown is best known for her evocative landscape paintings representing recognisable Australian vistas. Often working in oil, Brown’s works offer intimate impressions of the land, representing the world as she sees it - familiar and quietly compelling.
In ‘Wild Riches’, Brown turns her focus to Queenstown in Tasmania, a historic mining town on the western coast of the island. Rendered in softly toned hues, the landscape possesses a sublime sense of tranquillity. Rolling hills unfold before the viewer, stretching towards the horizon, while a hazy layer of clouds settles in the distance. In this work, Brown delicately balances detail with atmosphere, capturing the character of the landscape as it appears before her.
Brown has exhibited in numerous group and solo exhibitions across Victoria and has been selected as a finalist in several national art prizes, including the Bayside Painting Prize and the Hornsby Art Prize in 2026. Brown’s impressions of the Australian landscape would make a joyful addition to any collection.
