Black balloon in the bare sky

I wanted to capture a calm, stylish moment that still feels a little introspective, like she’s lost in her own thoughts. The clean, minimal background keeps things feeling open and uncluttered, while the bold black-and-white contrast draws the eye without overwhelming the space.
This works especially well in modern or neutral interiors.

Hello, My name is Gabster and I am a self taught artist based in Wilton Sydney Australia. Working primarily with oils and layered mediums such as modelling paste.

I am deeply inspired by figurative painting and am drawn to capturing subtle expressions, posture, and mood—often reducing the figure to its most essential elements. This balance between detail and minimalism allows me to create works that feel both striking and effortless,

Along side my figurative paintings I am inspired by textural artworks and when I am not painting I create with a palette knife tactile artworks based on coastal landscapes, organic forms, and modern interiors, as well as moments of stillness. Each piece is created to bring a sense of calm, warmth, and sophistication into a home—timeless in palette, yet contemporary in form.
