  • Sally is a Canberra based artist creating works on paper. The core of her work is the belief that seeing the world from a different perspective helps us find and appreciate the joy in it.

    She explores this using water-based mediums through painting, printmaking and drawing techniques. Her work using pen and watercolour explores unusual perspectives and distortions in both the natural and built landscape.

    For her painting and printmaking, the loose and impressionistic style is delivered via the unpredictability of watercolour inks. The resulting works have a feeling of vastness with colours that intermingle into semi-abstract landscapes with no beginning or end.
