One talented Mandurah family are putting their skills on display this weekend, with an exhibition showcasing four gifted artists' wares.
The Coufreur family will open their home at 5 Riverina Avenue in Coodanup to members of the public interested in seeing and purchasing some of the art collection.
Jos Coufreur is a well-known Mandurah artist who paints vibrant large scale artworks of celebrities, emus and landscapes.
He recently finished a large mural of the Old Mandurah Bridge at Bar Therapy and has been painting since he was 11 years old.
Jos' wife Hilly Coufreur paints abstract art inspired by the Australian landscape on canvas or board. Last year she won the Margaret River Art Prize - she started painted about seven years ago.
Elza Fouché is the pair's daughter, who started painting after she got some art supplies for Christmas about four years ago. With copic markers she delicately draws fashion illustrations.
Cherie Coufreur married into the family and was inspired enough to recently take up alcohol ink art. She is inspired by the colours of the ocean and loves the way the ink creates different patterns.
The art sale will be open from 9am to 4pm.
