​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.

2019
"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 further with my compositions, incorporating more negative spaces, where the eye can sit quietly amid the heavily textured detail.

​I am also re-visiting my "pear" paintings. I painted pears long before I started painting flowers, and still adore the imperfect organic shapes they create. Keeping them on black and white backgrounds I am giving them a contemporary backdrop.

I too am expanding my cubic abstracts. There is a demand for these simple yet textured pieces in contemporary homes"
