Artwork Description

My work is usually influenced by the colours of my surroundings or my feelings and thoughts of the moment. Pink and green have always been firm favourites of mine and I find myself pulled back towards them time and time again.
Over the course of the series the neon pink has become more and more prevalent and it's a colour which exudes joy. My hope is that the viewer feels the joy of summer, drinks by the pool, kids splashing around happily and the lightness that comes with having a good time.
All work is finished with two coats of varnish and the sides are painted in white.

Artist Bio

Born in Austria, Sibylle Zinnocker has been immersed in creativity since childhood.
Her artistic journey began with a deep love for colours and a passion for hands on creativity, which lead her to study at HBLA für Künstlerlische Gestaltung in Linz. There, she spent five years honing her skills in textile design, printing, visual arts, woodwork, metalwork, and art history. She graduated in 2001 with a solid foundation in artistic expression.

After relocating to Australia and working in a career outside the arts, Sibylle eventually rediscovered her passion for painting in 2020 through an abstract painting workshop. Since then, she has dedicated herself to exploring the limitless possibilities of abstraction, using art as a means of self-expression, mindfulness, and creative freedom.

Sibylle draws inspiration from nature, particularly the emotional and psychological impact of colour. Her process is intuitive—beginning with a chosen palette, she applies paint spontaneously, allowing the composition to evolve organically. Often working quickly, she embraces an element of unpredictability, finding beauty in spontaneity and the unknown. This approach transforms each piece into a journey of discovery, where the final artwork remains a delightful surprise, even to her.

Now working towards her dream of a full-time art career, Sibylle remains committed to maintaining art as her sanctuary—where creativity flourishes without constraint.
