Sydney Morning Herald – Jane Grealy Wins 23rd Dobell Drawing Prize

by

Nick Galvin, Sydney Morning Herald Arts Editor, writes on Jane Grealy’s Dobell Prize Winning work, Maria’s Garden, Scheme C.

“One morning eight years ago, Jane Grealy was standing in her backyard looking vaguely over the fence into her neighbour’s lush garden, contemplating what the future might hold. She’d just recovered from a debilitating illness and knew she didn’t want to return to her job as an architectural illustrator.

“I thought ‘well, I’ll draw that,’” she says. “It’s a very complex garden. And that, I guess, was the start of it.”

Eight years and many, many drawings later, one of Grealy’s drawings of Maria’s garden has won the $30,000 acquisitive Dobell Prize for Drawing, presented by the National Art School.”
