Africa Painting

Salleigh Olsen's works are an edgy contemporary journey of colour, mood, expressionism and abstraction. Each collection of works takes you on a journey that creatively portrays society, whether it be subtle statements using typography and bold expressive lines of energy and drama or soft moody sophisticated palettes of abstraction. Her female subjects are portrayed for their beauty and strength epitomising the female in her natural element, evoking the confidence, sexuality and coyness of the individual. Her use of mixed media and strong fluid lines enhances the form and displays the female in an uncompromising, mysterious, yet alluring way, pulling the viewer into the mind of the subject – yet allowing them to create their own story.
