About

My inspiration is the South Coast of New South Wales, in particular the Kiama, Gerringong and Shellharbour Regions where I have spent most of my life. My style mostly is semi-real representations of the ocean, rockpools and sea life. I use oil paintings and tend to use large canvases or whenever I can a wall for a mural. I love bold, deep blues and greens as well as the beautiful apricot colours that we get in our skies at sunset. For the last few months I have been exploring mandalas and have done three mandala murals which I love as they are never the same.

My name is Olivia (you can call me Liv) and I have been an emerging young artist from Kiama, NSW. Since I was about 13 years old I have had some of my artworks and cards in shops such as Beachside Emporium and the Kiama Art Society when I was in Highschool. Since then I have done three Willo Cricket Bats, Done over 9 online workshops through the COVID19 Pandemic reaching people from Sydney to Dubbo and Melbourne. I have also individually built up a paint and sip business where I have been able to run over 20 workshops in many locations. I love doing murals and in 2020-21 I was able to complete four in homes and cafes. This year I have done my Diploma in Art Therapy.
