7. COMA Gallery
Our Pick:
Original Painting on paper by Australian artist Renée Estée from her 2024 series 'Sad Waters, Different Oceans, Secret fires'. I have included these beautiful works on paper by Renée Estée because they are like such an intimate and evocative look into the artist's practice, like torn pages from her own personal diary, these works on paper are the perfect gift for someone sentimental or the more novice art collector who is just starting out and wants something small.

Tickets to Waitress the musical at the Sydney Lyric Theatre - Coming Soon in 2026
I saw this musical when I was in New York a few years ago, it’s one of my favourite musicals. It’s a beautiful and hilarious story about human flaw and redemption, with a score written by Sarah Barellies. It’s the perfect gift to get someone who has everything, because it is something they can experience with family and friends.
