Sunny Gumnuts

Sunny Gumnuts is a celebration of colour and the joyful energy found in nature. Inspired by the bold shapes of eucalyptus leaves and gumnuts, I used vibrant, contrasting tones to capture their rhythm and character.
The warm background captures the feel of an Australian afternoon, while the playful use of colour brings a sense of joy and movement.
This piece is painted in acrylic on MDF board and sealed with a protective satin varnish to enhance depth and vibrancy.

Hi, I’m Birgit — an acrylic and watercolour painter based in Western Australia, originally from Estonia.

I paint intuitively, often letting colours and textures guide me. My work is inspired by emotion, nature, and those quiet in-between moments we often overlook. I don’t always know what a piece will become when I begin — and that’s what I love most about the process.

Every painting holds a little piece of me, and it means so much when it resonates with someone else. Thank you for being here and for supporting original art — it allows me to keep creating from the heart.
