Artist Profiles

Bev Bagby Artist

Bev Bagby has been creating art all her life. She is a painter, printmaker, textile artist and tutor. Working in all mediums. Bev is inspired by the landscape, by texture; extending the work past the representational imagery to create a work where other spaces are created. Bev commenced teaching with Queensland Arts Council as an Artlink tutor in 1996. Her teaching practice continues to the current day.

Bev has spent the last twenty-one years residing in New Zealand and is so glad to be back in the Australian bush, working from her home studio in Boyup Brook. Initially studying with Qld Arts Council Open College of the Arts, Bev has worked with many tutors attending the Summer and Winter Schools at University of Southern Queensland, completing an Honors Diploma in NZ. Bev has had many exhibitions over the past thirty years, exhibiting in Qld Arts Council Gallery, Academy of Fine Arts Wellington, New Zealand Watercolour Society and many regional galleries. She was part of an artist exchange in Germany in 2007 resulting in a very successful exhibition. Her paintings are in private collections in Australia, New Zealand, England, Japan, Brazil, Germany and the United States of America.


Rachel Green - Rickles

Ricky is a chef, he has been cooking for over 15 years and has been pickling for over 5 years now. He is passionate about local produce and making delicious food. Rachel creates all of the packaging and labels, she did a crash course in graphic design but has mostly learnt on the job. I wanted to create bright, fun and appealing lables which also celebrate the produce inside the jars.

Karen from Karrabilli Retreat

Meet Karen

At Karrabilli Wellness, our story is a blend of well-being, indulgence, and the stunning Southwest landscapes.

We seamlessly combine health & cooking coaching, immersive nature retreats, and nourishing, locally sourced healthy food.

Our retreats provide a rejuvenating escape, promoting holistic well-being, while our carefully crafted treats and meals are a celebration of mindful indulgence.

Join us on this unique journey where nature, health, and deliciously healthy food converge for relaxation, nourishment, and personal growth.

Karen is a Certified Primal Health Coach since 2017.

Passionate about health and lifestyle balance, I embarked on a paleo journey in 2010 to optimise my own well-being.

Along the way, I've tackled challenges like Adrenal Fatigue and histamine issues, and was eager to share what I've learned with others.

My dedication to wellness led me to establish a successful Workplace Wellness Program before pursuing our dream of running wellbeing retreats.

In 2020, we acquired Karrabilli Retreat, where we host rejuvenating Wellness Day Retreats amidst breathtaking natural beauty.

Fueling our retreats is Karrabilli Eats, offering gluten-friendly, nutrient-dense treats that are as indulgent as they are health-conscious.

With our Commercial Kitchen now up and running, I'm thrilled to craft even more delicious offerings!
