| A professional artist, Malcolm Beattie
places great emphasis on the composition and content of a subject.
Combined with sound draftsmanship and an understanding of tonal contrasts
and colour, his paintings are both visually interesting and straightforward
statements of everyday places and things around him. His paintings
depict the life and activity of his environment. His watercolours
are characterized by a purity of colour and a straightforward arrangement
of tonal values. This emphasizes the light, which, together with a
broad approach to detail and careful composition make them stand out
from the crowd. Malcolm's work is represented in corporate and private collections both in Australia and overseas and is available through a number of Melbourne and regional galleries. He undertakes regular workshops and classes in both watercolour and oil painting technique. He is a regular contributor to the Australian Artist Magazine and International Artist Magazine. |

| "Davey doesn't appear to have
any preferred subject matter. True, he often paints things like derelict
barns slowly collapsing into the grass and old ploughs and threshers
rusting in a paddock. Yet just as often he'll turn his eye to the
strangely scuptural piers of new concrete bridges and overpasses or
to modern container ships sitting out on the bay. The old and new
serve him equally well." Gary Catalano, poet and critic, December 1999 |
