Former Sydney firefighter Chris Ryan studied Fine Arts at the National Art School in between shifts at Darlinghurst Fire Station. “Creative Arts was something I always enjoyed and I found it particularly therapeutic after many years of being in stressful situations.I have for the past 13 years divided my time between my rural property at Mudgee and Ubud ,Bali which I have found Inspirational. I find drawing the human figure Is like meditation and I get lost in the marks being transcribed onto the paper. An energetic and at the same time relaxing experience.”

REAL REFUSES
Being hung in the AGNSW is a prestigious achievement.
Never give up!!
Every year I go in the Archibald., knowing I probably will not be selected, however I can at least show the work to my peers & the public at TAP Gallery.
Not every one can get hung in the AGNSW but we guarantee to hang all rejected works at TAP GALLERY.
See our online gallery of works from previous Tap Real Refuse’s shows.
If we encourage each other every year to enter, one of us will get hung at some time in our artistic career.
ARTWORKS ARE COMING IN.
WE ARE TAKING WORKS UNTIL NEXT FRIDAY 2ND OCT 12-6PM
BELOW:
The Love of a Father (Dr Paul Mason)
by Krista Elliott
is one the wonderful entries that will be on display in the REAL REFUSE
Real Refuses has become firmly established as part of the “Archibald Season”.
While it is an exhibition of rejected artwork, it is much more than that…
It is about giving a fair go to all the artists involved in Australia’s largest art events.
Not everyone can win an Archibald but here everyone can exhibit along side their peers. (You’ll find past winners of Australia’s biggest art prizes here as well!)
In the past an extraordinary range of subjects from musicians, actors, politicians including the NSW Premier, Mayor of Willoughby, Anthony Mundeen, Tony Abbott, Leo Sawyer, the then Prime Minister John Howard, Madame Lash, Elizabeth Cummings, Professor Bruce James Brew, and Jaiwei, (a winner of the Sulman.)
We can’t wait to see the works not selected this year

Danielle Joy Golding – Paintings “On the symmetry of her psyche , and some other works” 6th -20th December 2020
Danielle Joy Golding
“On the symmetry of her psyche, and some other works”
Introducing a collection of works in the same format, all being 60 cms by 90cms, on plywood, painted in oil and varnished, a major theme and a few others but basically of different individual models with different compositions, presented as the same theme, “models “.
That vary in colour and schematic placement, moving from a consumerism and accessibility of models to an interpreted aesthetics , an artistic observation. The models are themselves painted realistically, are cued with varying colours and backgrounds and background Inclusions, a series all of beauty and aesthetics, and maybe a narrative involved in the story , the story included within the paintings , i.e. and we ask, Where is the model ? Or what is she doing? Changing in an inspiring way of human frailty and delicacy, to be appreciated again, the scene of and story of them, leaving the viewer perhaps with a glimpse of beauty. Seen through the eyes of an artist, a glimpse of female human aesthetics, of consumerism and the model and the industry/ market, where the model has been appraised and rehumanised, and her aesthetics are looked at, valued ,to be appreciated. Hope, to the barrenness of lifelessness , of ourselves , which we ask, And is beauty as humorous as it is rare? As we appreciate here, the examples of aesthetics .
The others here in the exhibition are paintings of the 2020 Bushfires, the movement of the flames, of bushfires early this year, and some Redly Caped Extinction Rebels /Activists and a landscape and another miscellaneous, mysterious work of a strange characteress indeed.
A fastly completed body of work, done during the Covid 19 crises of 2020 during social restriction and social distancing and even lockdown, showing some angst and anguish from us all during the time.
