We're constantly surprised and inspired by our creative community. Grace Butterfield, an Australian artist with a background in interior design and fashion, draws inspiration from well-crafted aesthetics, emphasising attention to detail, timelessness, and composition – often painting Mud Australia in her works.
My work is an exploration of the many narratives embedded in the everyday objects that surround us. I have spent the last 12 months really painting all the things I love, the simple things. Composition has been a major focus of my current works and has resulted in each piece not being restricted by the edges of the canvas, but instead suggestive of what might surround. Colour and tone are always at the forefront of my mind and often where a painting begins. I am fascinated by the way in which objects can enrich a space, and at this point in my career, still life painting seems to make sense. I don’t feel a need to invent subject when we are surrounded by a world just overflowing with beautiful imagery. I am learning every day, and hope to continue to paint, draw, and photograph simple things and give them permanence.
