Sallyann lives in Cassilis, East Gippsland, Victoria, and has returned to full time art making after a period of time in the wild world of accounting. She studied for a Bachelor of Fine Art, in Darwin and Melbourne, back in the day. She has also just successfully completed 2 Drawing Units through Curtain University.
Sallyann works in a variety of media, has a love of materials and processes. Her personal style shows a preference for strong and bold lines, shapes and colour choices. Her paintings and drawings are informed by the natural world around her.
Her creative process and life are entwined, and are driven to a large degree by what is happening in her garden and what is internally arising due to the season and reflection. She dreams for a future where everyone has the time and inclination to be more fully engaged with nature.
