PARROTS OF THE BLUE MOUNTAINS
'Sightings' was an exhibition designed by Blue Mountains Artist Ellissa Nolan at Braemar Gallery.
With a broad variety of parrot species 'sighted' in our world-heritage environment, Ellissa has referred to research created by the Blue Mountains World Heritage Institute (BMWHI) as a key driver for this exhibition.
Creating original watercolour artworks for 16 locally living parrots, Ellissa further explored creative abstraction of the concept through mixed media, sculptural interpretation and creating a unique colour palette and pattern designs for this exhibition.
