LOCATION:Martin Batchelor Gallery :: 712 Cormorant Street Victoria, 
DESCRIPTION;ENCODING=QUOTED-PRINTABLE:With a bold and dynamic painting style, Gillian's paintings celebrate the roles and qualities of men - son, partner, brother, father, dancer, worker, warrior, sage. “ My acrylic paintings are created with a theme of energy and movement.  They show the seen and unseen strength and energies of the human body.”=0D=0A=

Describing her painting style, Gillian is excited by the dynamic of movement. “Every line or brush stroke tells a story, and when I paint with a strong gesture or even a tentative line, the paint on the canvas will reflect that flow, and it becomes part of the visual image. I believe the dynamic of movement can be seen and felt on the canvas.”=0D=0A=
