25.01.2022 Fantastic news for those who love the stunning Waterwheel Gallery in Bedfordale. Particularly those who discovered its beauty for the first time during the Armadale Hills Open Studio Art Trail and of course for those of you that sadly missed out on seeing the artists at work during the Trail week... The artists have decided to extend their time there, demonstrating their craft and works to the public this coming Saturday and Sunday, 10-4pm. Jeanette Dyson (mixed media and na...tural ochres) Julie Fearns-Pheasant (mixed media/objects/painting/drawing/prints) and Sharon Mackay (ceramicist) will be there to discuss and show their work and methods. Please pass the word so that more Perth art lovers know about our beautiful art space. Tea, coffee and cake/biscuits are available. #waterwheelgallery #armadalearts #whatsonthisweekend #perthwaweekend #artswa #weekendartsinperth #armadalehills

06.01.2022 Hi Everyone It's the lovely artists ladies from the Bedfordale Waterwheel Gallery here. Just to let you know the gallery is open today and tomorrow from 10am-4. Please pass the word. Jeanette Dyson Sharon Mackay... Julie Fearns-Pheasant See more

05.01.2022 Hi Everyone I’m one of the group of artists who work and exhibit at this stunning gallery.I feel incredibly lucky. Just in case you weren't aware, the Waaterwheel Gallery is only open once a month at this stage after reopening a few months ago. It is truly worth seeing.The owner handbuilt it 35 years ago using repurposed materials.... The gallery in itself is just worth coming to see, its so beautiful and unique. This weekend we are open again each day from 10-4. And again on the 18th. Jeanette Dyson works with ochres, pearl dust and acrylics, Sharon Mackay in ceramics and I do upcycled sneakers, jackets, gutta on paper, illustration and multi-media. Aggie Textile arts pieces are to sigh at as they are all created using natural materials. Our lovely Rina who is still a young thing has created a business of her own selling buttons and stickers and prints of her contemporary illustrations and characters. Gooo Rina! We also have other works on the floor that have been in the collection since it’s beginning. Some artists are Brian Simonds, Clifton Pugh, John Bains and Pro Hart. Pop in. Would love to see you and it’s a great drive. Tea and coffee as refreshments are available. Julie Fearns-Pheasant Corbeau Art Space
