Tarnya

I was born and raised in the south‑east suburbs of Melbourne, Australia. Art has always been a deep passion of mine, and it has always been my dream to build a career from my art.

As an artist, Australia has been a big influence on my artwork — from the beautiful flowers on the gumtrees to our wonderfully strange and unique wildlife.

My Art

The best way to describe my art is playful, expressive, nature-inspired with a whimsical, handmade feel.

I love experimenting with different styles and mediums, mixing bold strokes, delicate details, and unexpected colour combinations to bring each piece to life.

I love creating vibrant illustrations, whether realistic, cartoonish, or leaning toward fantasy-style artwork. I’m continually inspired by how wonderfully imperfect, yet perfectly balanced, nature can be.
