Potts Point : The Book
One of the first posts on this blog was about local artist Dean O'Brien and his stunning book of paintings of Elizabeth Bay. Well, the superbly talented POTTS POINT local has done it again, this time focusing on "Potts Point - Sydney's First Suburb".
The Potts Point paintings capture the locality in all it's beauty - from the El Alamein Fountain, to the architectural beauty of the grand apartment buildings, from cafe society to the local dogs..... a slice of life both beautiful and historic.
“I think Potts Point is experiencing a renaissance," says Dean.
"The area began its European life as an exclusive address then transitioned from bohemian to downright dodgy and is now one of the most desirable addresses in Sydney once again. This book reflects the European style of Potts Point and demonstrates its rich history and diverse inhabitants".
Both the book and watercolours as well as unframed original oil-on-canvas paintings available at :
