Art on Show Judges Story Ron McBurnie is a Nationally Acclaimed Australian Artist and currently lectures in visual arts at the James Cook University, Townsville Queensland. Qualifications 2000 Masters of Creative Art, James Cook University, Townsville 1989 Graduate Diploma of Art, Queensland College of Art, Brisbane 1979 Graduate Diploma in Teaching, Kelvin Grove of Advanced Education, Brisbane, Qld 1976 - 78 Diploma of Arts (Fine Arts) queensland College of Art, Brisbane "I draw information used in my work from a variety of different sources both contemporary and historical. The ideas may come from obscure and seemingly unconnected bits of information but become connected through the visual relationships I bring to them. These new narrative combinations are what form the basis of the work that I produce. I usually make work in series. Each one is built up and added to over several years. As I grow older and I see the world differently, the new images I make evolve and adapt to suit my own personal changes. Ron has a remarkable body of work spanning from 1997 to 2009 to view his extensive biography click on the link below |
