Central Coast artist Penelope Jayne is showcasing her beautiful artwork in an exhibition titled Love in the Wild at Bay Gallery, Ettalong Beach.
Opening night is October 4 with the collection featuring stunning pieces celebrating nature and wildlife.
Jayne is dedicated to raising awareness about animal welfare through her art.
Her latest exhibition explores themes of love and connection in the natural world.
It features artwork depicting various animals, sea life and the nurturing bonds present in nature.
Jayne said her paintings celebrated the beauty and tenderness found in wildlife, making it a heartfelt tribute to love in its many forms.
“Love in the Wild features paintings highlighting the deep bonds between animals and their young,” she said.
“Notable pieces include a protective mother elephant watching her baby play in the red sand, and caring flamingo parents tending to their baby called a flaminglet, which takes two years to develop its signature pink colour.”
The exhibition also showcases a whale and its massive calf, among other animals like panthers, tigers and jellyfish.
Opening night is on October 4 at 6pm, 29 Broken Bay Rd, Ettalong Beach, opposite Mantra Ettalong.
