Ulysses by Eve Sellars – a colourful painting inspired by tropical northern Australia and a Ulysses butterfly.
THE INSPIRATION
I have been painting semi-abstract scenes of foliage, and recently embarked on taking my imagination north, to tropical Queensland, perhaps a rainforest, where ferns, vines, leaves, berries and flowers adorn the forest floor. In this painting I have included a blue butterfly - the glorious Ulysses.
Purple and teal intermingle with yellow-green and pink, set against a dramatic dark background.
IN SITU PHOTOS
'In situ' photos help us imagine art in our home. Feel free to reach out with pictures of your own space and I can virtually insert the painting for you. In situ photos provided here were created using the Artrooms app and may not be perfectly to scale. Photos of framed art are for illustrative purposes only.
ABOUT THE ARTIST
Born into a family of musicians, authors, actors, photographers and painters, it was natural that life lead me here, poised at the canvas, brush in hand. I live entirely off-grid at my bushland home in rural Victoria with hubby, dogs and a gorgeously prolific vegetable garden.
I use art to express my immense - well, let's say obsessive - passion for the indigenous landscape, which is easily recognised in my vibrant colourful and sensitive artworks. Luscious layers of pigment are applied with energy and spontaneity, often switching from brush to palette knife to provide additional texture and depth to my paintings.
