MTAS Monthly Demo Meeting – A Street Scene in Oils with Hiren Patel, 9th June 2026 at Hawkesbury Skills in Richmond

The Macquarie Towns Arts Society is excited to have Hiren Patel back to their monthly demonstration meeting on Tuesday, 9th June, 7:30pm.

PLEASE NOTE: There is a CHANGE OF VENUE for this Demonstration Meeting. It will be held at: Hawkesbury Skills Centre, 23 Bosworth Street, Richmond, NSW 2753.

Hiren will demonstrate A Street Scene Painted in Oil Paints.

Hiren says: “I will discuss concepts and techniques of abstraction in representational work, to arrive at loose brushwork with atmospheric effects to show mood and expression with details rather than detailed accuracy.”

Everyone is welcome, members and non-members. Come and join their meetings to view an inspirational artist at work each month, as well as the opportunity to enjoy networking with like-minded art enthusiasts.

Cost: $5 entry at the door
Supper: provided
Parking: On site parking is available at the Hawkesbury Skills Centre, please drive in to access. Street parking available as well.

About Hiren Patel:

Hiren was born in India and now based in Sydney. He studied and worked as an engineer until he had a chance to visit to the Art Gallery of NSW which sparked a passion for art that led him to study painting.

Hiren captures the emotional weight of urban and rural landscapes through a vivid interplay of light and mood. Influenced by the Australian Impressionists and modern art, his urban vistas offer a deeply personal look into his travels across Australia and India. Using influences of Australian impressionists and modern art, he beautifully translates everyday scenes into visual poetry, utilising field sketches, memory, and photographs to build richly layered colours and textures.

Hiren is an Associate of The Royal Art Society and has won many first prize awards in art shows including the Lloyd Rees Art Prize, Joshua Smith Art Prize and The Hawkesbury Art Prize. He has also been awarded many ‘best in category’ in Sydney art competitions.

Even if it’s for only one hour per week that I can spare, It keeps the artist in me alive.”
