Award-winning artist on how she paints in miniature
Tasmanian artist Joan Humble is presenting her final exhibition at the Lady Franklin Gallery in Hobart, featuring over 40 works that span from large-scale paintings to her signature miniatures. Despite a terminal cancer diagnosis at age 88, the internationally acclaimed artist remains dedicated to her craft, completing a three-year effort to document the rugged beauty of Tasmania’s South West Wilderness. Humble, a recipient of the prestigious Golden Bowl for miniature art, continues to work on remaining commissions, citing the intense concentration required for painting as a vital source of strength.
