Artwork Description

Tropical scenes make me happy. The Bird of Paradise flower is a proud strong flower, and stands tall above ferns and other foliage, like its saying "look how beautiful I am'.
I painted the background in acrylic to give the impression of light shining through foliage. I wanted the flower to jump out at the viewer so I decided to use oil to get the textures in the leaves and flowers.

Artist Bio

I live in Canberra, and love the colours of the changing seasons and the misty hue of the Brindabella Ranges. Textures and colour inspire me. I have been blessed throughout my artistic life to have been mentored by some wonderful artists, in Sydney and Canberra. They have inspired me to find my own style. I believe I have been influenced by the great Australian artists from the Heidelberg School of arts. I enjoy creating visual art using various media, including acrylic and oil on canvas, collage, lino print and wax encaustic. I completed studying for a Diploma Visual Arts in August 2017.
