Still Blue Night is painted from childhood memories of wandering through Angophora Reserve in Avalon Beach. The layered, gestural marks mimic the lush and energetic movement of the bushland. Palms and gumtrees tangle together as the moon peeks through the canopy.
Artist Bio: Abby Whiteley Greeff is a multidisciplinary artist based on Sydney’s Northern Beaches. With a decade-long background in interior design, Abby brings a refined understanding of space, composition, and texture to her visual art practice. Her shift to full-time painting emerged from a deeply personal place — the loss of her father to an aggressive form of dementia. In processing this grief, painting became a way to preserve memory and capture fleeting emotional landscapes.
Her practice is guided by intuition and emotional truth, influenced by her creative lineage — Abby is related to renowned Australian artist Brett Whiteley. She works predominantly in oils and acrylics, using layered brushwork and softened tones to evoke a sense of memory, stillness, and transformation. Her paintings often explore nature, family, and the ephemeral moments of connection that shape our lives.
Abby’s work is both personal and universal, capturing the tension between holding on and letting go. With each piece, she seeks to blur the line between reality and recollection — preserving what is felt rather than what is seen. Her compositions invite viewers to slow down, to reflect, and to feel.
Through her art, Abby offers an ongoing exploration of presence, loss, and renewal an invitation to honour beauty in the ordinary and find peace in change.
