Mary recently officially opened Peter Sterns’ “Our Beautiful Country” art exhibition at the Strathnairn Homestead Gallery.

Originally from Latvia, Peter has lived in Germany, Poland and the Czech Republic (then Czechoslovakia), before joining his father in Australia in1956.

“Peter is very inspired by the Australian Landscape, and this is evident in his art, which vividly portray the affection he feels for his adopted home,” Mary said. “The images strikingly capture the many moods of the Australian bush and demonstrate the wide range of landscapes in this country.”
