Liz McKay Art Exhibition on NOW


Liz McKay is an internationally exhibited artist and a long-time listener to the Phantom Dancer. Her latest exhibition is on right now.

Here are the details.
Liz McKay "Red Wine and Jazz" Art Exhibition
Soho Galleries
Exhibition open now - until the 26th February
Cnr Crown and Cathedral St Sydney
Open 12-6 Tuesday - Sunday

"McKay’s vibrant works draw their essence from smoky bars, sultry jazz singers, romantic couples, European cafes and childhood memories.

Sensually curved figures and intimate surroundings, Liz McKay’s work has the ever slight hint of 1920's architecture, curves and textures are overlaid with compelling explorations of mood and human interaction."
