Luxury Whitsunday Resort Hangs Samantha Beau Originals

June 3, 2021 by lorenz Leave a Comment

As an artist you always want that “BIG” gig, the one that gives you world class exposure and traffic.

My opportunity came 18 months ago when I was asked to paint two pieces for the refurbishing of luxury hotel, Coral Sea Resort in Airlie Beach, gateway to Australia’s premier islands, The Whitsunday Islands.

The brief was for two pieces, both using charcoals and subdued tones, a particular red and reflecting the reef.

Obviously the less ambiguous the better however this request did through me for a brief moment.

I presented a few concepts trying to artistically capture what was within the interior designers mind.

Finally we got there. Two large abstract pieces, flowing in nature, indicative of the Great Barrier Reef with it’s channels and bright flecks of iridescent blue.

The resort is amazing fringed along the foreshore leading from the main port to the Coral Sea Marina.

The Rocks is a pool bar that offers music with the setting sun, a cracking wine list and bar style food. I recommend staying at the resort but if you can’t stop by for a Sunday session and watch the sun go down after exploring my art works.

The first of Mystics are in the board room and the second you will find on the second floor by the lift.

I have a third piece in the hotel and my favourite by far.

I painted it to reflect the reef and water and was my submission for the 2019 Luxembourg Art Awards.

You will find this beauty in suite 201 which is a grand room with views over the Coral Sea, islands, pool and with it’s own gallery.

The resort is uplifting and the spa rooms amazing. I highly recommend staying and exploring the region and my art works.

Cooly Swimmers

Cooly Swimmers

The Southern beaches of the Gold Coast are some of the most idyllic, cleanest beaches in the world.

Certainly the most inspirational and joyful.

The coastal walk brings your feet close to the water whilst your soul is swept away in the gentle tide.

I love living in this part of the world and the last 12 months have found me meeting the most wonderful people and experiencing the blue seas of the coast.

The painting depicts, the things I love the most:

Snapper Rocks in the distance

Greenmount Hill

Coolangatta Beach with five of the guys I swim with, including Bruce who is floating out to see (he loves swimming out deep)!

The colours of the Coolangatta Surf Lifesaving Club are red/white/blue.

Kirra Beach

Kirra Hotel and Pagola

Our house

Cassidy the wild koala whose cage I have been cleaning at Currumbin Wildlife Hospital.

This piece is for sale on request.

Harmony in the World

Harmony in the World

Harmony in the world is about the face lifting of all things bygone.

This piece is a paint over of a semi-final making piece in the Doug Moran National Portrait Prize.

As with most things in life, a face lift was needed.

Under the inspiration of Kandinsky and the Fauves, Maree the Digger’s Wife is now in harmony again.

Nike the Greek Cat

March 29, 2021 by lorenz Leave a Comment

Nike the Greek Cat

Nike the Greek Cat is the story of cats in civilization.

Over 9500 humans started domesticating cats. Despite our feline friends being fiercely independent the humble cat obviously enjoys his privileges and rights.

On a short visit to Greece before the Covid-19 lockdowns I enjoyed a trip to Athens and Mykonos. The beauty in the ancient world captured my intrigue and imagination. As did the cats.

Nike is the iconic cat, patrolling the ancient pavements with it’s nimble agile gait.
