Kevin Foley

ARTIST CV

Kevin Foley was born in Melbourne in 1955. He is an experienced Art Educator & printmaker having studied Fine Art at the Preston Institute of Technology in the late 70’s and attaining a Diploma of Education in 1980 from Melbourne State College. I have a studio located on a small farm at Mia Mia. My work captures the reality & raw beauty of the Central Victorian landscape in which I am based. The work is always literal in its depictions, but behind its imagery & its specific ties to my surrounds it conveys something a little more abstract: the soul & energy of the Australian landscape and the lives lived upon it. This Spirit of the environment does not require much digging to access, we just have to take a moment to look & observe.
