Alex is a self taught full time painter from Berry on the South Coast of NSW. Her work is a reflection of the natural surrounding from rolling hills, fresh open beaches and rock pools.
"I have always painted but it was only since having my two children that I felt my inhibitions dissolve enough to show my work to others. Since then I have evolved my work predominantly working in the same style I have been working in since high school. My intuitive style of painting often includes bold colours and layers to reveal the story of my work through the use of pattern. I do this by applying a layer of paint over the colour in varying intensity and embellishing with intricate patterns. I often include strange little creatures and hidden layers in my paintings and my children always make their mark which i include in the finished painting."
