Tammy Whitworth Australian, b. 1976
Brisbane based painter Tammy Whitworth has exhibited widely across Australia and is recognised for her intricate and illusionary miniatures. Creating paintings that are intentionally small, Whitworth explores connections to nature and the universe, examining the energy that surrounds us, whilst delving into phenomena which question our reality. Delicate, fine detail collides with otherworldly, surerealist composition- each exquisite work presenting a dream-like paradise in which nature rises.
