Rowan Vuglar is a New Zealand Artist who started painting in 1980 in West Australia.

He took up residence in Bonnington Square in the early eighties and became an active part of the local community, exhibiting at the street festivals and starting a pocket library.

This new body of work, New Landscapes, initially arose from a series of pastels from 2024.

The basis is the black ground which becomes as much part of the finished work as the painting itself. “My work often takes a tangent: I work in patterns, usually set by subject matter or particular style and then something kicks in to spark a new adventure.

I am never content with the known, much preferring experimentation. I have found, in the last year or so, my initial drawing is very imortant as a signifier of the true intent and I try to adhere to it as much as possible.”
