THIS & THAT: Ann Thomson

“Creating something is more like letting go than thinking,” says Sydney-based artist Ann Thomson. Celebrated for her intuitive expressive brushstrokes and superb colour combinations, Thomson’s new collection of ‘Variations’ reads like a visual diary, a perfect companion to the Sartorialist’s relaxed but sophisticated street style.

Free and brave big washes of soft tones are punctuated by distinct markings and bursts of intense colour. Bottle green, ochre, deep plums, royal blue, siren red, apricot, dusty blues, desert orange, blushing pink, deep green, warm browns all frolic together.

Rejoice in autumnal colours as the weather starts to cool and enjoy the last days of ‘Variations’ at Olsen Irwin Gallery.
