Known for her minimalist still-life, abstract, landscape, and seascape paintings, Anna Jones is an Australian artist based in Bondi Beach. With soft, dream-like elements, her work captivates audiences through its distinctive interplay of texture and depth. Eliciting both tactile and visual responses, and cast in neutral tones that complement every space, her practice has a unique capacity to tie a room together, no matter its style.
Drawing inspiration from the colours and environments of her upbringing in Western Victoria, as well as her travels and life by the sea, Anna’s paintings merge reality with imagination. Incorporating an array of richly layered mediums – including plaster, acrylic, oils and pastels – the works have a sophisticated textured quality, meticulously crafted over time, insight and depth developing as she works.
She embraces spontaneity in her creative process, often allowing unexpected developments to guide her work. This relaxed and intuitive approach delivers emotive pieces that resonate with feeling, while creating a serene and contemplative experience for the viewer.
Through her practice, Anna offers a celebration of simplicity intertwined with the complexity of human emotion, capturing the essence of her surroundings and experiences and imbuing it with a profound restraint.
