A few years ago, I felt this strong desire to paint these fascinating birds. I hadn’t paid much attention to them until I moved to Bathurst, where they became impossible to ignore. I started to notice something unique about Magpies—they don’t just glance at you like other birds; they actually stare. At first, I found them a bit intimidating, but even more so, I was captivated by their boldness. Magpies exude confidence, strutting around with an air of coolness, and their expressions can range from cheeky to downright intense. This exhibition aims to capture their playful spirit and the vibrant moods they convey.

Yani Lenehan is an artist living in Bathurst, and has a passion for colour. Her inspiration comes from anything and everything, but particularly from ordinary things she sees every day. Lately, she has been mainly focusing her practice on still life settings which are colourful and joyful.
