​Felicia Aroney is a contemporary artist living and working in Sydney. Felicia draws inspiration from her European heritage, channeling the distressed and peeled paint facades of classical architecture. Working with oils and acrylics, her distinctive floral and abstract works utilise a highly sculptural mark-making process, using a palette knife to layer and shape the paint until it stands in relief from the canvas. In this way her work evokes a sense of history and antiquity alongside exploration and depiction of the natural world.

"My latest body of work is a more contemporary adaptation of my blossoms. Using larger more abstract gestures that ebb and flow around the canvas my overtly textured pieces appeal to both classic and modern homes. Expanding on my backgrounds I have added oil stick markings to create more movement and depth. I too am experimenting more with my cubic abstracts. Applying the same textured principles, light and shade,whilst still keeping to my botanical theme, the structured nature of these abstracts are the opposite of my figurative work. One approach is so free whilst the other relatively contained. I enjoy taking each technique to its extreme, whilst maintaining a likeness and familiarity across both platforms."
