BIOGRAPHY

Kathy Cornwall is a painter, interested in creating presence in form.

Born in Fiji, Cornwall completed a Bachelor of Visual Arts in 2005, the same year she became an Australian citizen. Intuitive and sensitive, Cornwall paints to create a more meaningful connection between herself and her environment.

After a first visit to the Atherton Tablelands, also in 2005, a fascination for trees was awakened. The artist has now created eight series of works depicting a relationship with trees, over separate exhibitions.

Cornwall also teaches fine art technique, and is interested in painting old houses, people, birds, instruments and boats.
