JACKIE MOSS CV & Statement

My artworks attempt to draw others in to share the beauty I see in the world.
I delight in connecting others with the ‘Extraordinary within the ordinary’, painting in oils with a rich, colourful palette. I strive to connect others with the powerful magic of noticing fleeting moments, exquisite details and the beauty to be found in their surroundings.
My practice is forever engaged by the unique structures of our Australian flora species and I intuitively explore themes of nature and solitude through my personal photography, which often become inspiration for a diverse range of artworks.

Jackie shares her creative time between Melbourne and Inverloch, a seaside town on the Bass Coast of Victoria
