Hi, welcome to my web site. I hope you enjoy browsing through my artwork. Please see contact details if you wish to purchase a painting, reproduction or commission an art work for your home, work environment or corporate space. I tender for public art, quote on insurance valuations and restorations of damaged paintings.
I specialises in tropical landscapes and well known as one of north Queensland's foremost artists. Working with gouache (opaque watercolour) on acid free rag paper and oils or acrylic on canvas, my paintings reflect the ambience of natural environments from the beach to the bush.
Painting mainly en plein air (in the field) I continue to crisscross Australia in search of subjects for my work, from Townsville to Broome, Alice to Adelaide and beyond.
Artist residencies at Arthur Boyd's Bundanon Trust, Uluru and Port Douglas as well as a recent foray into Asia with Redgate Gallery Beijing enrich Sylvia's creative work.
In my paintings I aim to capture the beauty of the Australian landscape, especially the tropics where I live".
