ALEX MASON
Alex Mason is an Australian artist from Inverell NSW, who’s work features strong, bold colours and textures. Her work is heavily influenced by nature particularly her mothers property who’s garden features a variety of natives. Alex particularly enjoys exploring the fun textures that Australian natives have to offer. Her mother also inspired her artistic practice which she applies acrylic mixed with a thickener with pallet knives or piping to create sculptural like pieces. A technique her mother used to make her art in the 90’s.
Alex worked in radio for five years in Brisbane QLD before deciding to move back to her home town and becoming a casual youth worker. In her down time she turned to art to help cope with anxiety. Art was a contributing factor in healing her anxiety and believes Art has the power to heal and bring joy.
After a successful launch in Oct 22, she went full time into art making March 2023. Since then she has competed in art shows coming second in the Inverell Art Prize (local), collaborated with other artists and businesses, released online teaching, in person workshops, prints and secured her first solo exhibition coming late 2024.
