Through The Palms

A glimpse of mountains, water, and sky — framed by the fan of palm leaves swaying in the foreground. Through the Palms plays with layers of colour and perspective, drawing the eye through lush greens into soft pastels and golden peaks.
This piece is relaxed yet deliberate, perfect for spaces that lean into warmth, openness, and a sense of escape.

Hi! I’m Kristie, a coastal painter and visual storyteller. I create bold, nostalgic artworks that reflect the humour, character, and connection of life by the sea. My work combines sun-bleached pastels with sharp pops of fluro, loose brushwork and figures with personality.

I’m inspired by the colours and culture of Australia’s East Coast, especially around Byron Bay, Tweed, and the Southern Gold Coast. My palette leans on vintage beach tones, layered textures, and the light of long summer days.

My work resonates with ocean lovers, collectors, creatives, and anyone who feels connected to the coast.
