Banksia Impressions I Ed. 3 of 20

On a recent holiday to the beautiful Burleigh Heads Queensland, I was constantly looking out for Banksia. I was intrigued to note so many forms of flower and foliage. A daily sketch from my mind with unusual colourings followed, and has now lead to a larger series of very individual images. It definitely captures the holiday spirit to me.

Hi, I'm Giulianna; thanks for stopping by!

I've always loved drawing since childhood; on paper, wood, bricks, anything I could get my hands on! Drawing underpins whichever medium I'm using at any time, from ink and wash sketches to larger soft pastel works, and acrylic painting. Apart from drawing, colour use is a strength through all mediums and I find a lot of joy in it.

My inspiration has, and will always come from nature; gardens, flora, landscapes, skies, rocks and foliage.

Aside from art, I use colour and form in my Interior Design practice which I have run for 15 years; and I also commission Bluethumb art for my clients!

I live with my young boys, hubby and Truffle the cat in Banyule Victoria - Wurundjeri Country.
