As a professional artist creating both original abstract paintings and commissioned portrait work, I've discovered that the path between realist and abstract oil paintings isn't a divide - it's a spectrum of artistic expression. Whether you're looking to buy original abstract art or commission a portrait, understanding this journey can help you make the perfect choice for your space.
Commissioning Original Oil Paintings: My Foundation in Realism
My journey in creating original oil paintings began with intensive classical training in Sydney and New York. For collectors looking to commission portrait paintings, this foundation ensures every commissioned piece combines technical mastery with emotional depth. My commissioned portraits, which have earned recognition through the Archibald Prize and won the Black Swan Portrait Prize (rebranded the Lester Prize), demonstrate the level of excellence you can expect when you commission an oil painting from my studio.
Buy Original Abstract Paintings: Discovering a New Freedom
When you buy an original abstract painting, you're investing in pure emotional energy captured on canvas. My transition into creating abstract oil paintings for sale has opened new possibilities for both me and my collectors. Each original abstract artwork I create channels years of technical expertise into pieces that transform living spaces.
Why Collect Original Abstract Art
For collectors looking to buy abstract paintings, understanding the value of original artwork is crucial. My abstract oil paintings offer:
- Unique, one-of-a-kind pieces that can't be replicated
- Investment potential from an internationally recognised artist
