Artist Bio: Glenyce Francis |
|
I enjoyed painting and drawing from an earlty age. However, work, study, career and family meant that it was not until the work/life balance was just right could I indulge my passion for art. I have experimented with a number of mediums and attended a number of workshops and courses which led me to focus on my favourite mediums of oil and pastel. My favourite subject matters include landscapes, nature and portraits which are relatable to my own experiences and ingrained into my personal life. Now living at the foothills of the Snowy Mountains I am inspired every day by the beautiful surrounding landscape. I love to travel throughout Australia capturing all that inspires me and brings me closer to the landscape, nature and people. My work has been described as impressionistic paintings which are ‘fresh yet realistic ….. vibrant and inviting …. giving her work an authentic feel’. I have won awards and commendations for artworks entered in exhibitions. Artworks sold reside in private and corporate collections in Australia and the UK. I have discovered and learnt a lot along my art journey and I am passionate about continuing my art journey and exhibiting more artworks in the future. |
