Artists
"every person has something profound to express"
On this page I celebrate the artists I have had the privilege of creating alongside. People whose talent, courage and creative voice remind us every single day why art belongs to everyone.
Jeffrey
Artist : Painter Title : Looking Out
With thick, textured brushstrokes and a palette bursting with life, lime green, cobalt blue, soft pink and warm gold, Jeff has created something that simply radiates joy.
Look closely and a bird emerges. Bold, bright and looking out at the world with quiet confidence.
Created during one of Jeff's sessions with Gabrielle at Uniting Age Care, this painting is a reminder that creativity has no limits and that the most powerful art often comes from the most unexpected places.
Jeff — you never cease to amaze me.
Sundeigh Marshall
Artist : PhotographerSunny is an extraordinarily talented photographer whose eye for beauty, light and connection produces images that stop you in your tracks.
Sunny is an artist with a disability whose creative vision and talent behind the lens is truly remarkable. Working in collaboration with Gabrielle at Empowering Art for All, Sunny brings her photographs to life through carefully designed sets, thoughtful composition and a deeply personal creative voice.
Together Gabrielle and Sunny create — Gabrielle guides and teaches, helping build creative sets and scenes, while Sunny photographs and brings those scenes to life. Their collaboration is a beautiful celebration of what becomes possible when we empower everyone to create.
Sunny's work has been exhibited in the window of Elders Street Vet as part of the Adopt a Greyhound community awareness campaign — stopping people in the street and touching hearts.
Her subject — the beautiful retired racing greyhound Sambo — was photographed against a backdrop that Sunny painted herself. Every element of the image was hers. Every creative decision was hers.
That is what empowerment looks like.
