Fern is an abstract artist and graphic designer based in Melbourne, Australia. She grew up in a small regional town in Victoria, where her passion for earth, the flow of nature and all things colour began.
Fern trained as a graphic designer (BA.Communication Design) and is a self-taught artist, many aspects of her artworks draw from her formal design training - negative space, colour, balance. Fern's abstractions are best known to be layered and flowing, inspired by the fluidity and movement of the earth’s elements; water, air, fire and smoke. Fern says "I am inspired by nature and also draw from my own personal experiences, allowing the emotions, memories, feelings to guide my intuitive painting process. My artworks across all mediums are expressive and full of movement. When I paint I pour my heart and soul into the artwork."
Fern's works have been seen on popular renovation shows, Channel Nine's The Block 2019 & 2020 and Channel Seven's House Rules 2020. In 2020 Fern collaborated with Australian skincare brand Ella Bache where her artwork 'Sierra' adorned the Christmas Gift packaging. Most recently Fern was commissioned to create several artworks for the luxury new Barangaroo hotel, Crown Sydney.
Fern's works are collected in Australia and internationally.
