Nel ten Wolde – Biography
Originating from the Netherlands, Nel ten Wolde emigrated to Australia in 1985. Since then, Nel has travelled extensively both around Australia and throughout Europe, gaining inspiration for her work from the many different cultures and countries. These influences are exemplified in her series of collages. She has been invited multiple times to take part in artist in residencies, working alongside and collaborating with other artists from around the world.
Whilst in Melbourne, Nel’s work is focused on abstract landscape oil paintings in varied sizes. The greatest source of inspiration for her work has always been nature, evoking emotions of freedom, beauty & wonder. Her extensive travels throughout Australia have had a significant influence on her life and work, in turn, reflected in her Art. Australia’s vast and diverse landscapes, open spaces, colours and outstretched desert plains, provide Nel with endless creative inspiration.
