Vicki Stavrou

Lido Deck

Acrylic on canvas

Oak frame

63x79cm

$3600

My paintings are based on narratives from the 1950's and mostly in and around Palm Springs, California.

I love the architecture and spacious feel, and slight decadence of this era with intense colours that give a feeling of joy, innocence and positivity.

Pool scenes with people diving into the pool and having fun are the main themes of my paintings.

Description

Gillie and Marc lived in New York for five years. Every Summer they would spend their lazy Saturday afternoons boating in the lakes all across New York. And not just in Central Park in Manhattan either. They would go to Flushing Meadows Corona Park in Queens, Clove Lakes Park in Staten Island or Marine Park in Brooklyn. It was the most relaxing way to explore one of the world’s most frenetic cities. They may not get the chance to go boating anymore but the happy memories of that time together will stay with them forever.

For every purchase of a bronze sculpture you will receive a certificate of authenticity, titled, signed, dated and editioned by the artists.

Bronze is very easy to clean, allowing you to enjoy your precious sculpture with minimal upkeep

Edition: /100

Description

Gillie and Marc have spent the last 15 years based in Sydney, a city famous for its gorgeous surf beaches. The artists’ son, Ben, is an avid surfer. As a family they would hit the beach frequently to watch him catch some waves. They found it absolutely mesmerising. This sculpture is also modelled off the life-sized bronze sculpture, The Wave Riders which was a tribute to the lost art of tandem surfing. It was picked for display at last year’s Harbour Sculpture Prize and now can be found at Woolloomooloo wharf. Tandem surfing might have gone out of fashion in the 60s but Dogman and Rabbitwoman are perfectly in tune with each other, and able to find balance despite the odds.

Artwork Features

Gillie and Marc love working in bronze for many reasons. Bronze is a very hardy material and will last forever. As experts in coloring bronze, Gillie and Marc enjoy experimenting with their sculptures, adding a splash of color to brighten the work, making it even more unique. 

For every purchase of a bronze sculpture you will receive a certificate of authenticity, titled, signed, dated and editioned by the artists.

It was pure 100% gold - Gillie and Marc

120 x 90 cm (H*W)

Edition: 1/1 Original

$6,100

Description

Everything was beautiful, everything was wonderful! And all because they were together. Riding off into the first glistening gold rays of the early morning, Rabbitwoman and Dogman set off on another adventure. It was pure 100% gold.

Artwork Features

The purest example of the artist’s freehand work, Gillie and Marc’s ‘Contemporary Line & Stencil Paintings’ are a stunning series that pairs unashamedly bold colors with deep black line work to form intimate moments featuring their signature alter egos, endangered wildlife and more. The carefully selected vivid colors and unmistakable imagery means no two pieces are alike and can have multiple meanings the more they are viewed. Gillie and Marc paint each unique canvas side-by-side ensuring love is engrained in every brushstroke of each one-of-a-kind work of art. Recently inspired by the pop style of Andy Warhol and the iconic stencils of street artists Banksy and Mr. Brainwash, Gillie and Marc expanded their collection with the edgy addition of using spray paint stencils on their canvases. The stark contrast of bright colors beneath a dark stencil breathes life into this limited series, embodying Gillie and Marc’s philosophy of the importance of accessible art by playfully bringing the street to the canvas.

Please note: All canvases come stretched and ready to hang, however if you would like your painting to be framed, Gillie and Marc are happy to provide this service for you at your request. For framing enquiries please email us. 

Care Instructions

It is important to keep your painting out of direct sunlight and not to lean anything against the surface of the canvas. If it gets dusty, it can be cleaned with a soft dry cloth.

Blue Indian Ringneck Parrot on Vase - Anne Smerdon

Anne Smerdon

Blue Indian Ringneck Parrot on Vase

30x24cm oil on board

Timber box frame

$1900 AU

Anne Smerdon is an Australian artist documenting the symbiotic relationship between humans and animals, particularly birds and horses.  Facebeak are her pet birds Vonnegut and Schiele. Anne has an extensive knowledge of body language and psychology in birds and horses. She uses this to work with live birds to create each of her artworks. She may spend hours with each bird, patiently waiting for them to become at ease in her presence so that she can capture their true personality.

Anne’s love for birds started from a very early age when her family purchased two small parrots as pets. They were vicious and in no way tame, yet Anne quickly became fascinated with them, studying them for school projects, recording her observations and giving presentations at school on the need to understand and protect such birds. She learnt to understand the calls of wild birds and would often find injured or sick birds and bring them home to nurture them.

In 2009 Anne brought a young exotic Indian Ringneck parrot called Vonnegut into her home. This spurred on hours of reading ornithological studies, discussions with avian vets and researching. As a result, Anne’s lifestyle, artwork and even career became synonymous with birds. Since then, Anne’s presence as a bird owner on social media has grown to over 400,000 combined followers on Instagram, Tik Tok and Facebook. She has written two books The Facebeak Guide to Living with Parrots and The Facebeak Guide to Solving Parrot Problems.

Bower of Beauty 

91.5 x 122cm

oil on canvas

Framed

$2850

My painting is inspired by driving through Byrrill Creek and the Mebbin National Park, which is close to my home.  The park is sub-tropical rainforest with ancient fig trees.  I love the beautiful walking stick palms and have placed some of these in my painting.  Also, I have been inspired by an awesome White Fig I saw at Crystal Creek.  The white fig is of the strangler fig species, and one of my favourite trees.  

The Regent Bowerbird (Sericulus chrysocephalus) is incredibly beautiful and intelligent and is found throughout the rainforests and leafy coasts of eastern Australia, all the way up in central Queensland, and down into New South Wales.  They display striking sexual dimorphism – the males, as seen above, are covered in silky black plumage, with glossy golden feathers on the ends of their wings, and pouring down over their heads like a thick, molten crown. The females, of course, are a dull, speckly olive colour.

Oil on canvas,

Do you feel it?  Can you smell it?  The fresh but earthy, damp scents of wood and moss when walking through an ancient Gondwana sub-tropical rainforest can create feelings of peace and tranquillity.  In the area in which I live, we are fortunate to have a choice of these rainforests to explore – Binna Burra, O’Reillys, Springbrook, Purlingbrook, Nightcap, Natural Bridge and many smaller protected areas.  

My painting is set in one of these beautiful rainforests, cooled by the small rapid creek running through it.  I have also added a kingfisher, which is one of Australia’s most beautiful birds.  Cloaked in stunning green, blue, turquoise and orange plumage, some kingfishers were once in danger of being hunted to extinction for their feathers.

 Kingfishers live all over Australia and we have 10 native species, including the kookaburra, which is the largest.

Cabarita Hill Littoral Rainforest

oil on canvas,

floating frame

61 x 91.5cm

$1650

Cabarita Hill littoral rainforest is a small, unique, and critically endangered coastal rainforest remnant located on top of a sand and rocky outcrop. The clifftop position and low windswept canopy make it distinct, and the area is of high conservation value and protected underFederal Law. Littoral rainforest is a forest community that occurs within 2 kilometres of the sea and is dominated by rainforest plants. Huge tracts of littoral rainforest on the TweedCoast were reduced firstly by logging and then clearing and mining to extract minerals from the beach sand.

I was fortunate enough to win second place in the 2023 Ocean Shores Art Expo. The

judges’ comments were :“The judges were impressed by the sensitive portrayal of the littoral space adjacent to the beach and rainforest. A keenly observed landscape that is wonderfully worked in terms of the detailed treatment of diverse foliage and flowering trees.” I was very pleased with these comments, as it is exactly how I want people to view this painting.

Inspired by the rhyolite outcrops around the caldera region of the Northern Rivers, NSW. 

The name rhyolite (from Greek “rhuax” for stream or flow plus “lithos” for stone) was introduced into geology in 1860 by the German traveler and geologist Ferdinand von Richthofen. Rhyolite is an igneous, volcanic rock. It is rich in silicon with a texture that can be glassy, fine grain or a mixture of crystal sizes. Natural rhyolite displays green, cream and occasional brown tones with patterns and inclusions. 

Perceived as a balancing stone, rhyolite is often recommended to increase self-esteem, self-worth while helping to bring resolution to issues. It is stone that is thought to facilitate change, variety and progress while helping to deal calmly with challenges. Rhyolite is believed to assist in fulfilling one’s goals and making one’s dreams come true, while strengthening the soul, body and mind. 

‘Hopes and Dreams’ has emerged as quiet work during a troubled time, and an exploration of shape and space.e

I painted this after several visits into this beautiful region in the Numinbah Valley, in the Gold Coast hinterland. Allowing several layers to dry over several days, I built up several layers of transparent glazes to enhance the spray mist and glowing light through the canopy of trees above. Waterfalls are one of the most challenging landscapes to paint, so I really enjoyed the challenge.

Sammy Ann is an Australian artist and creative. Her intuitive paintings are a unique take on traditional seascapes. They blend together her own artistic imaginings with the endless beauty of the sea. In her larger pieces, she uses a fusion of soft layers and swirling, ethereal, marks to evoke depth within her work, drawing inspiration from the ocean currents, tide and the interplay of light on water. Her smaller pieces are a study of the ocean creatures that dwell beneath the waves. They are inspired by her time spent snorkeling, diving and paddle boarding on the water.

 

A keen painter since childhood, Sammy chose to study a Batchelor of Visual Arts at Monash University after high school. This degree ignited a passion within her to explore her place in the world whilst also showcasing the beauty of our planet. However, her journey to becoming a full-time artist did not begin until Melbourne's first lockdown in 2020. Being at home with small children she would spend every day exploring her local beach. Once back home the children would nap and it was during these quiet moments, that she began to paint. Some days she would get to paint for hours, others only minutes. But day after day, the business began to grow. Fast forward today, Sammy is now a full-time artist who works out of her own studio space which is nestled in the artistic haven of Moorabbin, Victoria, Australia. 

BIO: 

I see myself as a day dreamer, mother, lover of the sun and surf, explorer, admirer, adventurist, artist and owner of permanently salty hair. Living next to the beach is a great inspiration for all my works. The ocean is such massive part of my life. I fell in love with painting and the ways I can explore my place in the world whilst also showcasing the beauty of our oceans. My practice is continually evolving and changing, as I relish in the joy of discovering more and more aspects of myself, my creativity and my business to share with the world.

My practice is continually evolving and changing, as I relish in the joy of discovering more and more aspects of myself, my creativity and my business to share with the world.

Sammy Ann is an Australian artist and creative. Her intuitive paintings are a unique take on traditional seascapes. They blend together her own artistic imaginings with the endless beauty of the sea. In her larger pieces, she uses a fusion of soft layers and swirling, ethereal, marks to evoke depth within her work, drawing inspiration from the ocean currents, tide and the interplay of light on water. Her smaller pieces are a study of the ocean creatures that dwell beneath the waves. They are inspired by her time spent snorkeling, diving and paddle boarding on the water.

 

A keen painter since childhood, Sammy chose to study a Batchelor of Visual Arts at Monash University after high school. This degree ignited a passion within her to explore her place in the world whilst also showcasing the beauty of our planet. However, her journey to becoming a full-time artist did not begin until Melbourne's first lockdown in 2020. Being at home with small children she would spend every day exploring her local beach. Once back home the children would nap and it was during these quiet moments, that she began to paint. Some days she would get to paint for hours, others only minutes. But day after day, the business began to grow. Fast forward today, Sammy is now a full-time artist who works out of her own studio space which is nestled in the artistic haven of Moorabbin, Victoria, Australia.
