<html> <p><br> </p> <p>It can get boring sometimes as a stay at home dad. When this happens I usually head down to the local op shops to see what treasure I can find, or as the wife lovingly puts it "adding to the horde". Sometimes I get lucky and find something cool, sometimes not. It always gives me a buzz when I find a piece of Australian art by a known artist and I never get grief for bringing home junk when I do! Below are some images of Australian art pieces with links to info by the artist. Please enjoy!</p> <h2>Jeff Hook. "Jeff Kennet"<br> </h2> Scored this Jeff Hook picture for ten dollars. No complaints there as I was brought up seeing his pictures in the newspaper everyday. It was always fun trying to find the hook!

"Hanging at picnic rock"</h2> This one got my attention. Just the shear morbidity of it! It is actually painted in vegemite! I payed two dollars for it! What a find! I actually emailed him to let him know I'd bought it and he was stoked to see it!Read about Peter Browne here https://peterbrowne.com.au<p>https://steemitimages.com/DQmYUCiVBVyejJFVqkmV9MqFMKQCZGEvNMMfnMFQVwJoXFW/23113011_366421270472061_275825231_o.jpg</p> <p>https://steemitimages.com/DQmcSTTFUZ8dNX583tjoNyvG5gceK5z54axmHMyji8DU266/tent.png</p> <h2>Peter Gasson. "Six of one, half a dozen of the other"<br> </h2> The wife brought home the first of three Gasson paintings we own. She paid a whole eight dollars for it (two's company). I found the other two at the same op shop about a year later and paid four dollars each for them.

"Hauling wheat"</h2> I love it when I find an etching, we have a few from different artists. This is the only Aussie one though! It cost me ten bucks!
