about the artist
Born in Adelaide and with a history in fashion, styling and photography, Belinda Herford is a contemporary abstract painter who is constantly creatively inspired by nature's patterns, lines, textures and movement. Her deep affinity with the simplicity of primitive ethnic expression from around the world in the form of natural textiles, carvings and beadwork has created a diverse range of works that are intimately connected through her portrayal.
Belinda works exclusively in oils on the highest quality Belgian linen and she has steadily gained a strong following for her ability to energise a space with colour and movement or to impart a feeling of calm simplicity through pattern and stroke. Her eclectic style and technique together with an exceptional ability to combine colour produces a clear relay of emotion onto linen allowing a broad communication to her audience. When asked about the various styles she responds, "Exploration and change is very natural to me, but there is still a thread that runs through them."
Her emotive and much sought-after works have been collected and commissioned by private and corporate national and international clients since 2000.
