Sabina D'Antonio

My studio is located in Mornington, off the beautiful Mornington Peninsula coastline of Victoria, Australia, which inspires the elements in texture, numbers, and colour found throughout my work.

The numbers you see in my work are inspired by the weathered and colourful beach boxes that outline our coastline, which I first fell in love with when visiting the Peninsula, as well as the boats, and marinas, to what comes naturally to me during the creative process. You will find these numbers, with letters, on the front and both sides of the canvas.

The music sheets found along the horizon are not any one song. I go through several sheets to find bars that match in thickness, to give the horizon an even flow across the canvas.

Inspired by my childhood with my Parisian Mother, who encouraged my love for art and music, to what I feel we all love most about the beach, 'the beautiful sound of the waves'.

Life is my inspiration.

My love for the beach and coastal lifestyle inspires a style all my own onto canvas, using self taught techniques in acrylic and mixed media, creating beautiful contemporary abstract to minimalist landscape and seascape paintings.

The most important elements in my work is the textile I use for texture, combined with soft palette strokes, create a sense of blurred motion reminiscent of the rolling waves or sand patterns on the beach.

My paintings are created on professionally handmade custom stretchers from a local framer, with gallery wrapped 12oz canvas, sides 1-1/2 inch deep - WHICH FRONT DESIGN CONTINUES ONTO.

Each completed painting comes wired and ready to hang for your convenience, and PROFESSIONALLY PACKAGED by my shipping agent.
