Based in Sydney, Australia, Wendy Cohen is an abstract expressionist artist whose mixed-media collections exhibit analogous and complementary colors to create energy and geometric contrast with a sense of harmony and balance. In her colorfully diverse work, Cohen is a curious painter who takes the viewer in the direction she wants us to go through sweeping brushstrokes that at times can appear to spring out of the canvas and into life. Primarily working with acrylic, acrylic ink, linen, boards, and paper, her discovery of color and shapes expresses much by juxtaposing textures and spatial elements. Through layering colors, Cohen evokes and explores human emotions and their response to life transitions and the natural influence of nature through the process.
Cohen is often found submerged into her creative process in a continuous relationship to the exploration of light through color. Her recent work “Dancing In Circles” presents a harmonious composition of shapes and lines that dance in warm hues of

Cohen continues to be found sharing her recent collections Internationally, not just making a mark in her career but serving as a reminder to continue transforming through art and developing new perspectives of the world.
