Vanessa Playford lives and works in Sydney, Australia. She is a self proclaimed "outsider artist" and has pursed her own journey into abstraction to investigate the many forms of emotion and space within the human condition.

The tension between meditative observation and dynamic energy is offered through a myriad of colours, tones, and paint applications, from wispy flickers to determined impasto strokes.
