Our Current Residents
The exhibition for our new Residents, Colin Pumphrey and Noreen Clapp, has already commenced. The “Eclectic” exhibition showcases a range of diverse subjects and styles reflecting both Colin and Noreen’s individual personalities.
“Through both our art journeys, we have learned to appreciate and enjoy all types of art, while focusing, in recent years, on Plein – Air and urban sketching in the vast outdoors. Within the delights and challenges we face in the studios and with onsite art, the results are a continual creative learning and triumphant life experience for us both.”
Colin and Noreen
Colin Pumphrey –Artist Statement
Colin has been involved in the art world for over 20 years and has contributed to high-level engineering projects for more than 50 years. His artwork connects engineering and transport, with a focus on environmental and historical themes.
Colin enjoys Plein-Air sketching, often joining talented artists in various locations. He has been a strong supporter of the arts, having served as past president of the Ellenbrook Art Group and a board member of the Ellenbrook Cultural Foundation.
Colin remains an active member of local Plein-Air Art Groups and is affiliated with Ellenbrook Arts, Mundaring Art Centre, the Baskerville Art Centre, and the Armadale Arts Society.
Noreen Clapp – Artist Statement
Noreen Clapp is an artist, urban sketcher, and visual diarist whose creative focus shifts with the scale of her work. She currently works primarily in watercolour and enjoys painting outdoors, drawing inspiration from the energy of her surroundings. Urban sketching has helped shape her loose, expressive style and sharpen her time management.
Over time her approach has evolved, she now often leaves parts of the page intentionally blank, adding a sense of mystery and the allure of the unfinished. A keen travel sketcher, Noreen captures her journeys in illustrated travel diaries. Her latest work, A Brush with the Valley, features a collection of sketches from the region.
Supporting Western Australians for more than 100 years
The way you represented us, your professionalism, and support was excellent. I was really impressed with the way you spoke to the judge about the accident details and how you turned the case around. We understand both parties were at fault, but without having you in our corner the result would have been a lot different. It was a very stressful situation for us both, and the support you gave us is something we will remember. Thank you so very much.

We are delighted and more than satisfied with the service provided by Aimee at HHG Mandurah.
Ours was a complex estate transaction that I was a little nervous about. I needn’t have worried. Aimee explained the complexities of the process with great clarity with the fee structures being totally transparent and clearly itemised. I will be forever grateful to Aimee and the HHG staff for their professionalism and competence.
We could rest easy knowing we were in safe hands.

Thank you so so very much from the bottom of our hearts for all that you and your team have done Aimee.
Can’t say I am not relieved to not see an email from you but I will be in touch soon to sort our wills out. Lesson learned on that part!
Kerrilee.
Thank you so much for all you have done to assist us through this very complex journey, Aimee.
You made this process so much easier for us to navigate, especially with all of the really complicated legal requirements. You genuinely took some pressure off us when life was happening around us.
