Jackie Anderson is a New Zealand born mixed media artist working from her sunny Newcastle home studio. She studied visual arts, majoring in painting at the University of Auckland. Jackie's work is characterised by her confident use of colour. Her paintings are vivid and bold yet on closer inspection reveal subtle details which encourage viewers to ponder and reflect in a more considered manner.
While her work is at times representational, abstraction is what fuels her creative practice. Every piece she makes starts out purely abstract and then more often than not morphs into something more tangible during the making process.
She was chosen as the Jumbled Art Superstar for 2019 and has also been a finalist in several other Art Prizes including The Fishers Ghost Art Award 2020 + 2022 and The Gosford Art Prize in 2024. She has exhibited her work in group exhibitions around Australia.
Artist Bio: Inspired by her coastal surroundings Jackie translates impressions of the environment around her into beautifully layered abstract paintings. She is a colour driven creative and her practice explores new ways of interpreting both built and natural landscapes into abstract form.
Jackie’s work is characterised by her confident use of colour, abstract shapes and expressive marks. Her paintings are vivid and bold yet on closer inspection reveal subtle details which provoke thought and wonder, opening the viewer to create their own personal story and narrative. She paints intuitively and blurs the line between past and present, real and imagined.
Her true passion has always been abstract art and while her work is at times representational, abstraction is what fuels her creative practice. Every piece she makes starts out purely abstract and then more often than not morphs into something tangible during the making process.
Her work is held in private collections around Australia, New Zealand and America.
