Featuring Artist: Celeste Dawson
Celeste’s artist’s practice consists of paintings with a very distinct and occurring theme of organic forms, lines, shapes, colours, and natural themes based on the Sunshine Coast in Queensland, Australia.
Celeste is a Christian artist, and in her painting she reveals through the lens of her faith the glory and beauty of God, His creation (or nature), and the spiritual power this holds. The ocean, the experience of the ocean, and nature in general are an instinctual and intuitive basis of the works she produces.
Celeste is known amongst the coast for her large-scale black and white murals, which she has learned over the last year is her most preferred medium to work in. Celeste is also exploring hosting and curating local exhibitions, particularly seeking to represent emerging artists from the area.
Having lived in the Sunshine Coast her whole life, the surrounding environment has undoubtedly been a major influence on her identity as an artist, as well as her faith. These two contributing factors reveal the formula for her art making.
