Artwork Description

Gorgeous seal on the beach - seems content; even if those eyes seem a bit sad. Painted during my artist residency in Iceland when I wore the orange jacket everyday. I included myself with the jacket in every painting during the residency. 😃 My residency was on a farm by a fjord. Along the beach, there were seals resting on rocks every morning, and in the evening, they would be in the water and would look at me when I walked by. I looked forward to seeing them every time I went for a walk.

Artist Bio

Evelyn Yee completed her Bachelor of Arts (Honours) at the Victorian College of the Arts (University of Melbourne), Melbourne.

She is a painter who enjoys capturing daily life, and pleinair painting using oil, watercolour and gouache. Painting from life and on location allows her a more intimate connection with her subjects and scenes, and she gets to know the subject and place a bit better. She is often out painting with an easel, either alone or with groups she belongs to e.g. Melbourne Urban Sketchers (a local chapter of an international sketch group; she is a founding member of the group), and pleinair groups.

Evelyn has participated in artist residencies in Australia and Japan, and has exhibited her work in Australia and overseas. She is a member of the Victorian Art Society and the Brighton Art Society. Evelyn was born in Malaysia.
