Jules Bulleid is a contemporary landscape painter based in Western Australia. Drawing on her former life on the land and travels through the outback, her work explores the raw beauty and vastness of the Australian landscape.

Although rooted in place, Jules’ paintings often shift into otherworldly interpretations, moving beyond representation to capture mood, memory, and atmosphere. Her intuitive process begins in the studio, where images and impressions of light, colour, and detail serve only as starting points. From there, each canvas unfolds organically, unplanned and undefined, guided by an innate sense of place and connection to the land.

The result is a body of work that sits between reality and abstraction, evoking the spirit of the landscape rather than simply depicting it.

Emma Sutherland is a contemporary abstract artist whose work captures the energy and essence of Australian landscapes through soft, colourful, and expressive compositions. Her paintings bridge the sensory experience of being immersed in nature with a modern abstract representation, using gestural brushstrokes, delicate mark-making, and a carefully considered colour palette.

Through exploring dramatic tonal contrasts and examining the balance between light and shade, Nell Symonds creates dynamic still life portrayals. Composed of assorted potteries, summery lemons and curvaceous pears and pomegranates, her subjects are often selected for their shapely proportions, intrinsic colour variations, luminosity and ability to cast compelling shadows.

Sydney based artist, Zoe Sernack has produced 5 new works for us that reflect forms of nature above and below the surface. Using a soft and delicate colour palette, Zoe not only paints but carves into the timber boards to really capture the flow and pulse of the Australian landscape. Her work explores the connections between landscape, memory and the subconscious. She has an instinctive understanding of colour, line and texture while balancing abstracted forms. Zoes’ objective has never been to depict but to evoke a visual connection. Whether it be a sense of place, a feeling or a memory.

Historically my work has been associated with strong colours and also the investigation of ‘edges’ – between representation and abstraction, and also the physical nature of edges of paint; whether hard or loose delineations, or the soft blending of paint, each specifically chosen to better evoke moods and create bold visual effects. 

Narelle Higson returned to full time art practice following many years of doing other things, including working in health and children’s television. Describing herself more as a scribbler than a painter, Narelle has embraced oil pastels which when combined with cold wax, enables layering and scraping back to create a unique finish and texture. Narelle is drawn to capturing Australian landscapes, describing the colour, light and movement of grasses, bushland, flora and water.
