Artwork Description

"There's seasons when it's harder to see beauty and feel joy. When the world feels heavy with grief, noise, exhaustion, and uncertainty, somewhere, somehow, in amongst it all, even though it's harder to see, beauty and light still exists.

This piece is an invitation to look for those things.

To choose light even though darkness threatens.
To keep reaching for quiet when a world feels too loud.
To remember that joy is not something we just stumble on, it's a choice we make daily despite circumstance.

These bright pinks and luminous turquoise waters, interlaced with subtle shimmering gold, were painted as an act of defiance against despair. A reminder that light and beauty still exists - especially here at the coast.

A place where joy survives.
A place where happy lives.
A place for holding onto beautiful."

Created with palette knives on high grade artist quality canvas, this colourfully emotive artwork is framed in Flooded Gum timber and comes satin varnished. It will come with a COA with the above artist statement written on the back.

NB: While every effort is made to capture the true colours and details of my artwork, every screen is different and art viewed online does not do my work justice. Slight differences may be evident between a screen image and the true tone and textures of my work, which can be more vivid and beautiful in reality. Scale may also be slightly off due to the insitu art app used, so please ensure you measure your space.

Artist Bio

“…painting stories evoking light and hope.”

Sharon Rynehart is an impressionist palette knife artist widely recognised for her flowing, expressive style of the sea, land and sky. A former Interior Designer and Colour Consultant, Sharon had health issues a while ago that saw her turn to painting for therapy and healing. Transforming her creative practice into what she now calls ‘heartwork’; emotive, hope-fuelled pieces inspired by faith, connective memory and experience, and the beauty of our Australian coastlines and landscapes. Sharon uses her background in colour theory to create original artworks with beautiful colour harmonies that allow you to reflect on your own story; to finish the train of thought, to remember a time or place, and to explore and feel the emotions they instill. Artworks that are relatable, that invite you to reflect, force an exhale, evoke a sense of calm…and bring you hope.

Sharon enjoyed recent success as a Finalist in Art to Art’s acclaimed “Unearthed” Art Prize, and has been fortunate to have several of her artworks featured on Channel 9’s “The Block” TV show. She has also had pieces featured in Grand Designs Australia Magazine. Sharon has gallery representation in both Brisbane and Melbourne and apart from these galleries, her works can be viewed in person tri-annually at the Affordable Art Fairs in Brisbane, Melbourne and Sydney.

Now widely collected both in Australia and Internationally, Sharon’s pieces continue to resonate with many, inspiring calm and connection through an uplifting sense of place and emotion. They are a reminder to always look for light and hope…no matter the trials and challenges we all face.
