Jacinda Bayne

Rollover image for details

Jacinda paints intuitively, playing with the movement of paint on canvas to achieve unique visual effects. She creates richly textured works layered with opaque and translucent paint, but she also enjoys leaving clues for the viewer about how they were constructed. Patches of blank canvas, drips or cracks in the paint are examples of her “playful but considered” technique.

“I love paint, and I use it to create a kind of visual dialogue,” says the artist whose work is at once bold, sensitive and evocative. “I want people to understand my work from the point of view of design and mood, as well as the sense of place it evokes.”

“For me, if a landscape comes to life, all I see is shape and colour. I’m completely compelled to paint it.”
