Contact us about personal payment plans and Layby.
Deb Michell-Smith is a regional NSW artist whose drawing and painting practice focuses on outback and regional Australian landscapes. Her work explores presence, resilience, and connection to place, often capturing moments of stillness and transition. Figures, animals, and land coexist in her paintings, suggesting quiet narratives of endurance and belonging. A finalist in the John Villiers Outback Art Prize and the National Emerging Art Prize, Michell-Smith lives and works in regional New South Wales.
“This collection comes from time spent in outback and regional Australia. These are places where the land stretches wide, the light can be harsh, and everything feels heightened rather than romantic.
These paintings reflect a quiet way of looking and waiting, noticing what endures in these landscapes: solitude, watchfulness, and a deep sense of resilience. I’m interested in how figures, animals and the land share space. There’s often stillness, but never emptiness. Fencelines, trees and distant horizons become simple markers of time, survival and connection.
These works aren’t about spectacle. They’re about slowing down and being present long enough to notice what remains. For me, this is what feels distinctly here: the weight of the land, the easing of time, and the quiet strength found in outback and regional Australia.”
