Art2Muse A vibrant art gallery Located in the heart of Double Bay, Art2Muse Gallery attracts locals, designers, national and international art lovers who can also view and purchase artworks online. Established in 2001 by Katrina Hampton, Art2Muse Gallery represents a diverse range of artworks from 45 established artists at an affordable price. The gallery has been operating in Double Bay since 2008 with an exciting program of regular exhibitions and provides ongoing personalised service. In November 2014 Art2Muse Gallery was the first Australian gallery to be invited to participate in the Contemporary Istanbul Art Fair in Turkey. We offer a home consultation service to advise on artworks. An initial visit to your home or office will include photographing the space and discussing your preferences. We will then produce a catalogue of recommended artworks superimposed on your walls as a preview before trying the pieces in your home. The $99 consultation fee is then deducted from your first art purchase. Here is a selection of available artworks by Lee Wise. Please feel free to contact us for high resolution photographs and catalogues of artworks you are interested in and to discuss your requirements.

Lee Wise English born Australian artist, Lee Wise lives and works in the Gold Coast hinterland at the base of Mount Tamborine. Having been an artisan for over 20 years working with wood, he started painting in 2010, and quickly realized that a lot of the skills and techniques he had already learnt now applied to his new medium. He has since gone on to have great success as a painter, having been acclaimed for his art in numerous prizes, including winner of the Adelaide Perry Drawing Prize, winner of the Cliftons Art Prize, runner up in the Moran portrait prize and finalist in the Archibald prize, to name but a few. Surface Tension I have always felt connection to the water s edge. Like a distant call from generations past. I hail from a long line fisherman and feel at ease with the sea. This series of paintings is a direct connection to my past. My aim was to recreate a fleeting moment and try to capture the atmospheric conditions that surround the ocean. I want the paintings to evoke a memory rather than be an exact representation of a place. The juxtaposition of soft sky and turbulent foreground creates a welcoming tension where the land and water collide Lee Wise
