| SOLD T-001 daffodil_sunrise by Ross Halfacree mm 30x30 $1200 FAMILY MERIT AWARD |
I am a full-time practicing artist and a member of the Eramboo Artist Environment in the northern suburbs of Sydney since 2019. I am a painter and collector, and a member of the Art Gallery of NSW.
Using acrylic and mixed media, I work mainly with Geometric and Landscape Abstractions as well as creating Social Messaging artworks. I look to re-express both mundane and complex concepts to create images that will have viewers linger, explore and debate.
I am curious, often experimenting with non-traditional materials and methods. Using acrylic and enamel with the latter sometimes in aerosol form. I intertwine pen, ink and pencil where this adds detail, clarity or another layer for viewer speculation I work on canvas, linen, board and different types of paper and usually work on 2 or 3 pieces at the same time.
My work is currently included in Australian private collections in NSW, Victoria and South Australia as well as Murphys, California.
