Early days captured in exhibition

WATERCOLOUR artist Perry Smith is hosting a new exhibition of his works in Atherton.

Titled The Early Days, the exhibition features paintings of what Perry loves to capture – iconic buildings around the Tablelands and the coast.

He has developed a sharp eye for detail and was commissioned recently to do a new painting for the Lions Den hotel which was destroyed through flooding associated with Cyclone Jasper.

Perry completed an amazing take from the old painting which now sits pride of place back in the hotel.

A Herberton resident, Perry has enjoyed applying his brush to paper to keep the heritage of our region alive.

The exhibition, which will run until 20 November, is at Tropical North Framing, Shop 3, 116 Main Street, Atherton.
