With Christmas coming up and some in lockdown, now is a great time to step into Kool Koala Art and buy yourself -- or a loved one -- a unique piece of artwork for the living room or home office.

Owner Michael Farquhar and his son Jed opened the business in January 2020 with the aim of providing an affordable variety of artwork to suit different tastes.

The Kool Koala showroom -- at 1070 South Road, Edwardstown -- features original artworks by Australian Indigenous artists, as well as more budget friendly reproductions of these beautiful pieces.

Works by local photographers and metal artists are also available.  

Kool Koala team member Nina Juniper says the pieces in stock are “bright, colourful and different to the usual artwork you might see around… we love to be able to offer a unique and interesting collection to our customers”.

In the four weeks leading up to Christmas, Kool Koala is having a sale, offering a ‘kool’ 20 per cent off high gloss acrylic prints, and 20 per cent off metal art, as well as other festive specials.

The gallery -- which offers exceptional service and quality -- stocks works by local landscape photographers Dave Birch and John Nieddu, as well as the Fleurieu App’s founder, Susie Williams.

In the spirit of Christmas, Kool Koala is partnering with the Fleurieu App to give away a fabulous artwork, valued at $315 to one lucky app reader.

The gallery is donating a matte-finished print of Chern'ee Sutton’s stunning painting ‘Kathit Ngkaarli’ which means “grass weaving” in the Kalkadoon language.

For thousands of years, Kalkadoon women have gathered many different grasses, barks, plant materials and even hair to weave a vast variety of traditional items.

Sutton says her painting “represents my people’s connection with the lands and this ancient technique that has been passed down from generation to generation”.

For your chance to win this special piece, simply visit the Fleurieu App and click through to the competition section.
