ABOUT
All too often we find that the expression 'six degrees of separation' exaggerates how far apart we all are in this small world. I often find one degree is more appropriate - particularly in the wine world and even more so if you're from Adelaide. When we discovered Georgina's art work, we also found a family friend from our childhood whose married name prevented instant recognition. Her art work will appear on our soon to be released Grüner Veltliner from Kremstal in Austria as well as our Sparkling when we get around to it. Please look up her web site to discover more of her work. JH THE ART: Happiness in life is someone to love, something to hope for and sometimes to dream. This is where Georgina Hart draws much of her inspiration, which she is keen to convey to her audience. Born and raised in Adelaide, Georgina studied fine and commercial art. From a very early age she has been drawing and making things. Her entire spare time at school was spent in the art room creating. Georgina feels that her earliest lesson from art school days was to “paint and draw what you feel” and this is evident in her highly distinctive and individual style. She returned to art after a fulltime position in catering at Ansett. Following their demise in 2001, her husband gave her a paint brush, five tubes of acrylic paint and encouraged her to return to art class to pursue a life long passion of becoming an artist. Georgina describes her style as ever evolving and seeks to express in her paintings the joys of love, friendship and happiness with compositions celebrating the simple things in life. Each painting tells it’s own story and is often experiences that have touched her life. Each one is painted with a spontaneous passionate exaggeration and is a feast of visual stimulation and riotous fun capitulating the viewer into the world within. Her signature pieces are works of strong images and rhythmic designs set against a backdrop of rich colour. Her paintings possess a dream-like quality and are a sensual feast of colour and charmingly expressionistic. The immense appeal of Georgina’s visual narratives resides in her unique whimsical style. “My passion for life, joy of motherhood and my loving family are a constant source of inspiration which I hope I convey through a sense of tenderness and emotion in my works. My goal as an artist is to bring these qualities together into one experience for the viewer.”
