Colley Whisson

I was born in Brisbane, Australia in 1966. I grew up in semi rural surrounds which gave me an appreciation for nature and the outdoors, enjoying every opportunity I’ve been given to study and appreciate its nuances. In 1985 I had a brief stint as a picture framer which I now look back upon as an excellent introduction to the art world as a young adult.

After giving me all the necessary fundamentals required in becoming an artist my father Eric encouraged and guided my early artistic direction.

I have long believed “It’s not what you paint but how you paint it”.  With this in the fore-front of my mind I’ve dedicated myself to developing my skills to the highest level possible. I’m aiming to tell a visual story with clarity and sophistication but I am also driven to distort and abstract the image as much as possible while still maintaining a realistic image. Being in high demand to hold exhibitions, tutoring appointments, judging and demonstrations in Australia and abroad I look forward and have relished every opportunity.  I am happy to carry the tag as one of Australia’s finest young Impressionist painter’s.  With books, magazine articles and demonstration DVD’s to my credit I feel that I have begun to make my mark in the Art World.

My aim is to share my knowledge and joy of painting with like-minded artist’s world-wide. Throughout my career I have been blessed to be able to share this wonderful artistic journey with my wife and my two young sons.

This journey is ongoing and I look forward to each time I return to my easel.
