Outback Echo

Carolyne Jane's abstract landscape “Outback Echoes’ captures the essence of the drylands in middle Australia, presenting a vivid contrast between the earthy tones of the land and the blustery blue sky above. Carolyne’s minimal use of brushstrokes brings a unique texture and depth to the piece, evoking the rugged, yet beautiful terrain of the Australian outback. The strong and vibrant colors of the oxides against the tranquil blue sky create a dynamic visual tension, drawing the viewer into the expansive landscape.

The simplicity of the composition adds to its striking impact, making it a captivating focal point in any room. Carolyne’s work highlights the natural beauty and stark contrasts of the environment, allowing the piece to resonate with a sense of place and atmosphere.
The canvas is a one off original piece and comes with d rings and wire ready to hang and sides are painted in a crisp white to set off the artwork. The work is created in acrylic paint. All work has been sealed and varnished for protection.

THE BLOCK ARTIST - 2024 and 2025

I was absolutely thrilled that two of my works were again selected to feature in this year’s series of THE BLOCK in Daylesford 2025 and last year in THE BLOCK Phillip Island 2024! It is an incredible honour to be part of such a well-loved show, and I can’t begin to express how exciting it was to see my art displayed every night during contestant interviews.

I am an abstract artist and I find incredible inspiration from the rocks and sea around Phillip Island. I am very drawn to the changing colours of the sea and the beautiful colours of the red rocks and natural diversity of the island which often tend to end up being the main subjects for my art. I have a real passion for colour and enjoy experimenting with the use of different colour combinations to create my work.

My works are totally intuitive and I pour all my energy, passion and emotion into each unique piece I create. My works are mainly acrylic with some mixed media of charcoal and pastel and I adore painting on big canvases.

My artistic Journey originally saw me working with oils creating contemporary seascapes but as my art evolved I found myself wanting to really let go and create from within. I love being able to create from something as simple as a mark on paper or a thought and let the canvas tell me what it wants.

Lately I’ve found myself going a bit wild with my brushstrokes as the crazy madness of creating takes over. My passion is colour and I love experimenting with different colour palettes which keeps my works interesting and exciting. I truely am on a journey of exploration with my work.
