Hi fellow Artists, 

I recently completed Life Landscapes with Robert Lee Davis.

During the course I had the absolute privilege of visiting the Storehouse Gallery in St Kilda, Melbourne, Australia and seeing Robert’s work in person.

I don’t have enough words to tell you how stunning and incredible his pieces of work are and how truly blown away I was. 

It is such synchronicity to live in the same city as Robert and have been to so many of the locations he talked about and shared with us during the course that have inspired him in his work.

I asked permission to take photos of his work in the gallery to share with all of you

The lovely Adrian from the Storehouse Gallery spent so much time and care talking to us and telling us about the incredible art, he then went and got some of Robert’s pieces that were not currently on display to show us as well, wow, just wow.

I stood in front of them for a long, long time, mesmerised.

It truly is such a special place and has such a wonderful energy, I walked around in awe.

I had all my fellow classmates in my thoughts and heart as I admired all of Robert’s art. 

I was also fortunate to purchase one of his pieces, The King Weeps. I loved this piece instantly when I saw it online and am so grateful I could bring it home with me.

I came home inspired and just absolutely blown away by Robert’s art and all the other art in this beautiful space.

I wish and hope all of you get a chance to see Robert’s art in person one day.

Thank you for letting me share my experience with all of you. 

Keep making art
Wendy Steward
