Framed with: BRYDIE PERKINS BRAKELS WHAT'S YOUR MEDIUM? I create bright, bold and happy pieces for groovy people! My palette is one of mixed media, I like to experiment and get excited when there’s a new product to experiment with! HOW LONG HAVE YOU BEEN PAINTING? I honestly can’t remember a time when I haven’t been painting and creating. It’s part of who I am, not just what I do. WHERE DID YOU LEARN TO PAINT? Art runs through my veins! I have grown and developed my own individual style artistically with the aid of a bright palette. Surrounded by it my whole life and mentoring from Mum. IF YOU COULD PREPARE A PAINTING FOR ANYONE WHO WOULD IT BE? I’ve always had a love for Noel Fielding and would love to create a piece for him. I think my palette would allow me to make a magical and psychedelic piece for him.
WHY HAVE YOU FOCUSED ON FLORAL PIECES? I have always loved flowers, flowers make me happy! I’ve found that many of the people I know just don’t have the space or time for gardens anymore and I love that I can bring nature into people’s homes and apartments in a different way. IS THERE AN ARTIST YOU ARE INSPIRED BY? Del Kathryn Barton, I could look at her whimsical pieces forever and ever. WHAT’S HARD ABOUT BEING AN ARTIST? The toughest part would have to be that some people see it purely as a hobby and not a business or career path.
