All About Ms Philippa Bess:  Queensland Flora and Fauna

​

I am delighted and excited to welcome to the Godofredo Cezanne website an exciting and passionate painter, Ms Philippa Bess from Queensland who paints with clarity and distinction, the environment around her  in Queensland.

Philippa specialises in detailed paintings of the beautiful tropical flora of Queensland and its associated fauna. Her paintings in acrylics, pastels and primacolor are precise, detailed and with rich vivid colours that reflects her deep and passionate understanding of these relationships of nature. I am constantly amazed by Philippa’s ability to blend the flora and fauna to-gether, as one would see in the wild. Her exquisite detail underlies her true mastery of capturing the important moments in her Queensland environ. 

Philippa commenced her craft recently after retiring from work as a Town Planner. It is now her passion and she uses every spare moment to express her view of nature as she sees it. She is a  prolific painter of all forms of nature.

Philippa attends regular art classes with Art School Co. and is part of the Sunshine Coast Art Group. She is inspired by both traditional and modern Australian landscape painters, particularly local Sunshine Coast artists including Amanda Brooks, Kendall Perkins and Shelly Harkness.

It is great to have her as part of the Godofredo Cezanne website and as it provides a vibrant dimension on Australian landscapes with the details of the flora and fauna that inhabit it.

Philippa can be contacted by email pbess@outlook.com.au ( trade mark as  "Pippa and Me").
