Artist Bio: Helen Oprey

I am an emerging Australian artist living in the Southern HIghlands of NSW. After working as a Social Worker for many years, I have decided to concentrate on my life long passion for art. I am currently being represented by 19KAREN CONTEMPORARY ARTSPACE on the gold coast by their invitation. I recently participated in a Group Show called RED curated by RICHARD DENNY and 19KAREN after being invited by the artist Richard Denny. I look forward to the adventure that is art. I like to paint in layers, celebrating colour and texture. I am also interested in capturing the quirks of human nature and therefore many of my paintings are of figures in conflict. My aim is to produce beautiful and thought provoking art.
