Alpha 24

Warm ochre and orange across the whole canvas, with a tall grey-green band running down the right of centre. Black rectangles and thin black lines are placed around it. Some edges are sharp and some are soft.
The surface has a lot of variety. Parts are thin and scrubbed, and parts are built up thick and gritty. Cream and white show through here and there.
A good fit for a neutral wall or a room that needs some warmth. Original, signed, ready to hang. Ships from Brisbane.

I'm a Brisbane-based painter working in oil, acrylic, and mixed media. I trained and worked as an engineer before turning to painting full-time in 2012, and in 2024 my practice shifted from representation to abstraction — treating paint as its own subject, where surface and gesture carry what image once conveyed.
My recent work builds in layers — acrylic, charcoal, ink, and oil pastel — on cradled wooden panels and stretched canvas. I work with a restrained palette, and I like a piece to hold the evidence of how it was made: scraped, reworked surfaces that reward slow looking rather than a single glance.
My work has been exhibited across Australia since 2012, has received several awards, and is held in private collections across Australia, the US, and Europe. You can follow the work in progress on Instagram at @sof.georgiou.art.
