NOELA LOWIEN

Bibliography

I live in the small, picturesque country town of Kilcoy, Queensland, which is rich in culture and history. A descendant of five pioneering families, I am very involved in our local Historical Society, being the research and publishing officer with 15 major local books successfully published to date, from 1992 to 2013, along with the Kilcoy History Trail establishment. This brings about my aspiration to paint local and historical scenes, combining my interests of history and art. Having painted since 1994 and very busy with work, family and other hobbies, I concentrate on painting in oils, have exhibited with success at district shows and my work can be viewed at local venues.

Inspired by the beauty of the Australian landscape.

Kilcoy District History is of particular interest, so there is always a desire to capture the past in historical paintings of street and landscapes scenes, as well as portraits.

Always living in our rural district, there is a special interest in travelling through our range of beautiful Australian landscapes, using varieties of colours and techniques to portray them on canvas.

Involvement in painting of the popular fibreglass cows for the Leukaemia Foundation cause in 2001. Co-ordinator of the Annual Wood, Wine and Art Festival 2000 to 2013.
