Hi. I’m Clare and I’ve been painting since 2018. I’m new to the art scene and I’m really looking forward to learning lots. I mainly paint portraits and love all things retro. Art is my happy place, I love creating it and seeing other people’s beautiful art.

Hi, my name is Jo, I am a Northern Rivers NSW artist and affiliate artist with Emergent Gallery - Studio on Brunswick. I am an abstract expressionism artist. Basically my work is my journal, however I present subjects or emotional areas that sometimes we find hard to express or be vulnerable with. So, you may find your own interpretation within my work or connect in some way. I'm also an art therapy practitioner and offer holistic based workshops and art classes. Seeing people reconnect with their creativity makes me so happy. I am a mum to three adult children and in the last little while finding the space to rediscover myself for who I am in this new chapter of life. I love creating and expressing through art and all it holds. So happy that this space is here for us to be able to connect and be there for each other along the way.

I'm Abbie an abstract painter from Brisbane. I paint to bring calm to myself and the homes my paintings live in. I grew up in my mother’s art studio and have been painting and drawing all my life. I've exhibited in lots of galleries across australia and been a finalist in numerous art prizes which is how I've ended up in this group. I won highly commended at the Revival art and design art prize this year and this coaching was part of my prize! I've been in and around Studio on Brunswick since almost the beginning, have held two solo shows and been a part of a few group exhibitions. My paintings are deeply intertwined with my own personal experiences through love, loss and human connection. I have a fascination with movement and our interactions with it and continually explores this through the use of fluid pigments. My choice to use raw canvas with acrylic paint creates dreamy evocative scenes, encouraging us to stop and exhale.

Hi everyone. I’m Kay a botanical artist based in Port Macquarie. 🌿

I’m Clare, I have a home studio in Banyo, North Brisbane. I’m a fine art photographer currently transitioning from a portrait photography business, of over ten years, into creating original photographic artworks, inspired by flowers and botanical elements. I love exploring themes of movement, emotion, and the quiet beauty found in nature, and I’m exploring incorporating hand embroidery and paint into my pieces. I’m at an exciting stage of building my art practice and learning how to share my work with collectors in a meaningful way. I’m particularly interested in developing the storytelling behind my art, growing a sustainable creative business, and connecting with people who resonate with what I create. I’m really looking forward to learning from everyone in this group, sharing the journey, and cheering each other on. It’s lovely to be here! 😊❤️
