Australian artist Katrina Rhodes formidable talent first became apparent  at the age of 5, when she was unequivocally disqualified from the  Sydney Morning Heralds Under 12s  drawing competition, which deemed her  work most likely drawn by a guardian or adult. From this pivotal moment  in her childhood, Katrina Rhodes embarked on a remarkable career as a  freelance artist, in which she honed an enviable skill set and found  herself in high demand as an accomplished and versatile artist across a  host of mediums.-From the No Vacancy website



 There is no questioning Rhodes’ technical skill, it  is brilliant. I feel something when I stand in front of her work, an  eerie quiet which comes from the tension between the subject, a royal  portrait, and the object itself, a duck personified as human. The finish  on the paintings is impeccable, but something is missing. Is it the  glass shine or the oil paint sheen we’ve come to expect from artists of  the past who must interest Rhodes? -Nikita Vanderbyl’s review of Rhodes’ show A Handful of Civilised Friends
