Me and my Original Australian Art

Author: Chris Stefanis - Date Thu Oct 2025

Having travelled extensively through Europe as a young man, before settling and making my home in South Western Australia, my mind was opened to many cultures.

I like most artists, draw on my life’s experiences for my inspiration. My art is intended to transport you, the viewer, to a new place. That may be an actual place like Uluru, or perhaps a place that is brought to life in the viewer’s mind’s eye by the scene and brushstrokes. I paint both from reference subjects and my imagination. I make my art to express the vibrancy of life.

As a proponent of outsider art, I love to experiment with abstract painting techniques like paint pouring or painting with chains, or other unusual objects to achieve dynamic free artwork on canvas board or stretched canvas. I also paint landscapes which are my interpretation of Mother Natures' wonderful world. I do this using oil paints or acrylics on canvas board, stretched canvas or canvas paper. Furthermore, I also paint with pastels on speciality paper.

Stephen Thiele

Author: Stephen Thiele - Date Wed Jan 2024

Introducing a creative energy that knows no boundaries and captivates the passion through the power of my paintbrush.

I am a self-taught aspiring artist starting as an impressionist and sometimes ventures into an abstract painter, seamlessly blending acrylic and oil to create unique captivating showpieces. Every stroke I make is a reflection of a profound experience, a moment frozen in time from an adventurous life journey.

My paintings are a testement to the raw emotions and vivid memories that shape our lives.

Whith a palette filled with passion and a confident embrace of color, I create artwork that ignite the imagination and invite you to embark on a wild jaunt of self-discovery. Painting to me becomes a language, and a canvas becomes a gateway to a world where reality and abstraction dance in harmony. Each stroke is infused with intention as I channel my innermost thoughts and emotions onto a blank canvas.

The result is a symphony of colors, textures and configurations that call to mind a keen sense of wonder and thoughtfulness. Every piece I create I invite you to explore the depths of your own imagination. Let your mind wander through the vibrant images, delve into the depths of abstract shapes and unravel the hidden stories that lie within one's impressions.

Recently some of these paintings have been exhibited in local art shows, some on disply in the resident, T- Leaves Gallery and also can be viewed on www.gallery247.

This same artist has also published two childrens books found on Amazon ( " What am I " ) has written poetry and a collection of short stories.

So dear art enthusiast, clutch the passion, embrace the color and let your imagination run wild as you begin a journey through captivating creations, may your eyes light up and a smile emerge.

See you soon, " Like leaves dancing in the breeze". ( a name of one of my paintings)

Stephen Thiele.

Still life with the drama

Author: Sheena Mackie - Date Mon Dec 2024

Hi Artists and Art Lovers! 

 

Since my university studies in art a few years back, I started staging photographs for some still life paintings. I aimed to create a curiosity in each of these stagings - some sort of mystery or mood. 

 

I welcome you to enjoy my collection, as is, and as I add more to it... of Still Life paintings. 

 

The technique is of the old masters and creates depth in the painting. Sometimes, I strip it back to make a cafe-style work, but retain the mysterious element that I wish to capture. 

 

I have always loved the play upon light and shadow in paintings, as it helps the piece to contain some sort of story that can be stimulated in a viewer. 

 

Each of these works takes many hours to create, from the staging to the underpainting, to the varnish. I consider every element in each individual piece. Some will have pearl pigment to enhance them as a gothic aspect in half light, giving the piece a haunting transition from day to night. 

 

The works are created on stretched cotton canvas, painted in Atelier Artists' Acrylics and finished with (usually) Atelier Varnishes.  The canvases are stand-alone works, ready to hang, but can be framed by the purchaser if taken to a good quality framing service. 

 

Enjoy! 

 

All the best, 

 

Sheena

On my easel this rainy day

Author: Leanne Purins - Date Sun Mar 2023

This one is coming along and close to being done. Its been a joy to paint the colours and have a go at the complexity of the elements. I really love putting together the physical items, playing with them this way and that, realising that the back cover of a book was a perfect blue colour to set off all the rest. The two books in this painting are actually art books of mine, one filled with wonderful still life and one filled with modern art by women.




Hello!

Author: Melissa Robertson - Date Sat Jul 2023

Hello to my viewers! 

It’s nice to meet you! To introduce myself a little, I’d like to tell you all that art has been such an important part of my growth. I’ve always loved it and often had creative projects going over the years.  There’s something about making beautiful things with my hands that gives me a sense of purpose and, at times, rest. 

I love that I can use my creativity not only to create beautiful things that I get to enjoy, but that others can enjoy too! There’s something incredibly satisfying and joyful about seeing my work up on someone’s wall. It tells me that it has a home and that it makes the home of my art collector complete. 

I’m so pleased to be on this creative journey and to have you along for the ride with me!!

All the best 

Melissa
