Artwork Description

Something very different for me, I had the inspiration for this one while I was on the excercise bike in the studio. I had a lot of fun painting it. Playing with paints and different ideas and styles is one of the best parts about being an artist. It is easy to get set on one style, but you can loose the possibilities that might come when you allow yourself to play.

Painted on a deep edge stretched canvas with matching black painted sides, signed and ready to hang.

Artist Bio

I am an artist based in Wollongong, NSW, I grew up here between the mountains and the sea. My passion lies in painting with bright and bold colours, Australian native animals, especially birds make up a lot of my inspiration, though I also like to explore flora and still life subjects. I like to accentuate the hints of colour I see within my subject matter. I love painting with a palette knife and I use mainly acrylic paints on stetched canvas.

I love to add texture to the canvas with deliberate strokes that give the subject matter definition without it always being obvious. I am a full time artist working from my home studio on the South Coast. I find great inspiration from daily beach and bush walks and I can't imagine a life where I was not able to be creative everyday, and I feel truley blessed to be on this journey.
