The Team
“Oceanscapes” – Shannon Conway
As well as being my husband Shannon is an underwater photographer and videographer who is passionate about recording the wealth of biodiversity beneath our oceans and waterways. His vision, experience, occasionally luck and most definitely his patience, allows Shannon to captures these magical images and bring this fantastic world to life.
“Ozka Scribbles” - Ozka
I met Ozka by accident and immediately fell in love with his quirky style and amazingly funny portrayal of animals both domestic and wild. His animation work is also incredible.As well as his collection of random critter creations you can also commission him to immortalise your favourite pet. Cats, dogs, rabbits rats, all creatures great and small.
“Fremantle Ducks” – Nick Ashby
“Fremantle Ducks” is as collaboration between myself and artist friend “Nick”. We are creating a range of paintings that depict scenes throughout Perth in a quirky and unique way.
For many years Nick has been painting and not so long ago began a series portraying his, and my hometown and surrounding areas in the UK. I purchased various copies for my own home here in Fremantle and had many friends who saw them saying how much they liked them. This got me thinking and wondering if the same idea would work for sights in Fremantle, Perth and WA.
Over a period of time I picked places and themes that I thought would work, came up with ideas, took hundreds of photographs, and then not being able to paint in the slightest bombarded my painter mate with it all until he submitted and agreed to me commissioning him to fulfil my vision.
And so “Fremantle Ducks” was born.
