Exhibiting artists from the region and beyond
Throughout his career, Phil Rolton has explored a variety of mediums and styles, ranging from abstract painting to photo-realism. His passion for fine art began during his studies at East Sydney and Melbourne Gallery Schools, where he received guidance and inspiration from the likes of John Brack and Jon Molvig. Molvig, in particular, challenged Rolton to push the boundaries of his artistic ability through critiques and life drawing classes.
Over the past 40 years, Rolton has made his home on the Sunshine Coast and has recently settled in Noosa. He continues to produce exceptional art, utilizing mediums such as pen and wash, acrylic and ink. While his current focus is on photo-realism, his years of experience in abstract painting have undoubtedly influenced his work, resulting in pieces that are both technically impressive and emotionally resonant.
