Artwork Description

This original watercolour painting features a nautilus shell and is part of a cohesive series exploring the quiet strength of shells, painted in shared tones. Earthy hues of burnt sienna and sand are layered with exciting touches of dark ochre and indigo blue. The painting hints at sundrenched dunes and cool shadows, Australian earth, and coastal light.

Painted in 2026, this A3 artwork highlights the natural beauty of the nautilus form and the subtle textures created as watercolour pigments mingle on the paper.

Artist Bio

Jemma creates elegant, light-filled watercolour paintings inspired by contemporary coastal scenes and botanicals. Often painting en plein air around Perth’s beaches, she captures the coast’s ocean movement and sunlit atmosphere.

Her work is distinguished by a focus on watercolour’s natural luminosity, thoughtful variation of edges to add interest and focus, and an aesthetic that balances accuracy with expression. This combination allows her to capture the coast in a way that feels both true-to-life and beautifully artistic.

Producing new work regularly and completing many commissioned pieces, Jemma is known for her refined, airy depictions of nature. She is a member of the Watercolour Society of Western Australia.
