The Australian Watercolour Muster Biennale - 2025
Our goal is to create a broader platform for Australian Artists to engage with the international Arts Community and specifically, for the Watercolour Community, to take our Work into new and creative fields of endeavour, creating opportunities to share studios and exhibition spaces where possible in this World.
The Australian Watercolour Muster is part of a network from over 90 Countriesengaged and linked together via the FabrianoInAquarello - Italy Art Symposium - held annually in Italy by Artist and Curator Anna Massinissa for over the last 17 years, hats off to you Anna.
This is the 7th Australian Watercolour Muster Event - commencing in 2018 - The ‘AWMuster’ has engaged Artists from across Australia and had the honour of taking Artists Works to Italy over the seven years, to showcase and share their Work with the World, crossing boundaries and boarders with the love of their Art.
Artists who have been able to travel with their Work have now become ambassadors and representatives for Brands, they now run Workshops around the globe and as individual Artists have grown their Studio practices and made many friends - we are proud to continue this tradition in 2025!

Curator - Wyn Vogel -
Wyn has always juggled her professional and creative life managing studios alongside of her desk and computer – with Studios in recent years in Victoria and Queensland –Australia, Wyn loves to explore the essence of her world – the colours, shapes and light that evolve around her.
Wyn has been the invited Leader of The Australian Watercolour Delegation to FabrianoInAcquarello – Italy, since 2018 with her watercolour work showcased as part of the Finalists selected to Exhibit their work in Italy with Artists from over 90 Countries.
As a part of this involvement with the international Art Community Wyn commenced the ‘Australian Watercolour Muster’ to provide a platform for Australia Artists to engage and commence their international experience at a local level.
Wyn has exhibited her watercolour work in joint Exhibitions in Coquelles and Gaillon – France and delivered Watercolour Workshops in Gaillon 2018 and the French Village of Saint-Maixme-Hauterive – 2019 and was part of an International Delegation – Exhibiting at the 6th Silk Road International Art Exhibition in Xi’an China in September – 2019, and demonstrating at the Shaanxi Provincial Museum of Fine Arts during that visit.
‘Walk The Grampians’ 56 x 78 cm - Watercolour and Ink on 300gsm Arches Cold Pressed Paper
Juror Australia - Julie Reason -
“An attention to detail is prominent in all my paintings, watercolour or oils, by studying closely the birds and flora you become aware of how complex, breathtaking and precious nature is - painting birds especially with their different personalities, gestures and movements, is a constant challenge I enjoy, recently experimenting with large Acquabord for my watercolour work!...”
Julie has been an artist most of her adult life and has been a finalist in the inaugural - Australian Watercolour Muster 2019 - Exhibited at the Emporium Hotel South Bank Brisbane with our ‘32 Best In Muster2019’! Julie’s Artwork has won many awards and is collected by private and corporate collectors nationally and internationally.
Julie is the founder and coordinator of the Glenthompson Art Show - Victoria Australia, which is in it’s 5th year.
In 2023 - Julie helped coordinate our Australian Watercolour Muster - Remote and Rural Painting Trip - 2023 to Dunkeld in the Southern Grampians Victoria - a great success and amazing experience for all Artists who travelled with us - thanks to Julie.

‘Banksia Integrifolia’
International Juror - Muriel Buthier-Chartrain (France)
‘I paint my silences: the long, short, necessary, those that hurt, calm or that anguish, those that question or amaze, I paint what I conceal... I paint with the salt water of my soul.’
Painting is the work of a whole life, it’s an integral part of the life of the painter... It’s the time and the work that allows his art to be developed. Only time fashions the painter and his artistic path is not enough valued... Probably due to the time of ephemer, ready-made and consumerism.
Born in 1961, I am painting since 1981. Passion became my work, I am a full time professionnal painter.
If I would be able to speak to the young 20 years old woman I was when I began, I would say to her that I am very proud of our artistic independance and of our artistic path with more than 50 solo exhibitions, in France, but also several times in Sweden and in Australia.
My work has been presented and awarded in numerous collective exhibitions (almost 200), being invited or selected - In France, in Europe (Belgium, Sweden, Spain, Italy, Germany, Greece, Lithuania, Slovenia) and other parts of the world as, in China, Canada, Chile and Australia where I had been invited for an artistic residency.
My paintings are also showed in galleries. More recently, my work has been choosen by Architects & Interior Designers for beautiful projects!
Member painter & Member of management board of French Watercolour Society (SFA) | Honour member of Canadian Watercolour Society (SCA) | Member of the artistic and cultural network ERYA. Currently living and working in France, I am also a watercolor teacher.
