Stella Peterson
I am an emerging abstract artist with formal training in Advertising/Graphic Design, and more recently, Interior Design. Throughout my working life I have undertaken select visual arts studies at both North Adelaide School of Art (NASA) and Adelaide Central School of Art (ACSA). I also practised figure drawing for 2 years at Adelaide Art Society in North Adelaide.
Art has been a constant in my life and I view the world through a designer's eyes. My colour and design sensibilities guide every creative decision I make.
Transitioning from years of digital design at a computer, I felt compelled to return to traditional media. I have been painting acrylic abstracts since late 2021. Self-taught, my aim is to create abstract paintings that are contemplative and evocative.
Very much influenced by my training in watercolours, my works are often created in fluid layers, experimenting with transparency, movement and merging of colours. I enjoy making organic style paintings with a gentle atmospheric drama. My work is intuitive, derived from my thoughts and feelings. I am excited by the endless possibilities of abstract art.
