Yarra Valley Arts presents an exhibition of expressive landscapes by Mary Newham at Yarrawood Estate. These richly textured works capture the rhythm, colour and character of the Australian environment.

A long-time Yarra Valley resident, Mary paints predominantly en plein air, working directly in nature to observe the changing light and mood of the land. Her practice is grounded in close observation and a deep sense of place. The resulting works are atmospheric and painterly, celebrating the beauty of the region she calls home.

This partnership brings together wine, art and landscape in one of the valley’s most iconic cellar doors. Yarrawood Estate is internationally acclaimed for its hand-crafted, single vineyard wines. Located on the valley floor, the estate’s mild climate allows for slow ripening, producing wines of exceptional purity and complexity.

Visitors can enjoy Mary’s artwork while tasting wines or relaxing in the cafe. It’s a full sensory experience that links culture and terroir.

Yarra Valley Arts connects artists, patrons and visitors across the region. Through collaborations like this one, the organisation continues to celebrate the creative and agricultural richness of the Yarra Valley.
