Just sitting together

This piece celebrates the unbreakable bond between sisters, daughters, and best friends — the kind of connection that never wavers. It’s about late-night chats, belly laughs, and those quiet, knowing glances shared across a crowded room. A reflection of ride-or-die, lifelong relationships, this work captures the comfort, loyalty, and joy of being truly seen by someone who knows you inside out. The style is gently influenced by Sargy Mann, with a focus on colour, intimacy, and everyday moments.

Kirsty thanks her Australian country upbringing and her close relationships with her mum and two sisters who have all studied Architecture for the whimsical and often naive urban subject matter that now dominates her work.
“My work is inspired by the beautiful or unique architecture of a home; the paradise of family. I love colour and am always trying to express a sense of joy. I feel that artists David Hockney, Reg Mombassa and Nick Olsen are my muse when it comes to influencers.

“After becoming a teacher and spending decades of my life teaching drama, art and working with children which I love I have finally decided to give my one art practice ago. Having painted as a hobby my whole life I felt it time and had a burning desire to make art my full time gig.

With ‘finding my way’ an art community on the central coast I am finally on my way to making that dream a reality.
