ALI WOOD Former clothing designer and fine art graduate Ali Wood is widely celebrated for her redolent Australian landscapes and floral still life works, She finds constant inspiration in the landscape surrounding her farm in Braidwood, in the Southern Tablelands and she captures this acutely in her evocative works. Woods fascination with floral still life originate with the desire to capture the fleeting beauty as the seasons wax and wane in her cold climate garden.
