Vynka was raised in a very creative environment; and as a self-taught artist, was always encouraged to follow creative pursuits at home and began drawing in charcoal at a young age.

Originally from Perth, Vynkas husband and I have been overseas for a while, but now are based in Cronulla, Sydney.

Vynkas works celebrate a quality which exaggerates colour and perspectives, intentionally exposing brush marks and paint drips to show signs of the hand made and contribute to the visual environment of the works, believing there is an honesty in the imperfect.

Subjects for Vynkas art are a diverse fusion of personal travels and experiences along with memories and encounters with the special individuals met along the way. Finding moments that inspire, Vynka endeavours to capture them and translate it into the art so us the audience can experience it as well.

'The greatest joy is to see others connect and celebrate the little bit of satire and originality that I assemble in each piece. My hope is that my audience gains as much enjoyment from my completed works as I gain from the creative process.'
