Alicia Cornwell Fine Artist

Alicia is a Melbourne artist working out of her studio in a 100 year old home on top of a mountain in Olinda Victoria, Australia.

Completing a BACHELOR OF FINE ART at Caulfield Institute of Technology (Monash University 1985) majoring in Printmaking and Painting with a Graduate Diploma in Art Education at Victoria College Burwood (1987). She now specialises in Still Life working with Oils on Stretched canvas.

Alicia spent many years working in the Antiques and Vintage industry for interior design with her own business before moving to Painting full time. Now she enjoys incorporating this knowledge into her artworks - an amalgamation of natural forms against and with vintage design elements. Her works vary from bright and bold designs to softer pastels with strong lines and layerings of glaze with an eye for detail.

Alicias Studio is surrounded by 100 year old gardens and the Dandenong Ranges Botanic Gardens just a step away along with National Parks and Public Gardens. From this she draws inspiration in both colour and form for her artworks. Seasonal changes are brought to the fullest where she lives so there is always much to choose from.

She has exhibited and sold her work throughout Australia and overseas and is represented by several galleries in Australia.
