Originally from rural Victoria, I was raised in a home where creativity was encouraged. Over the years I have spent time in Tasmania, Queensland and Canberra. Residing now in a coastal village halfway between Sydney and Brisbane, in NSW, Australia, is the perfect base to create art.
Daily walks on the beach along with frequent travels expand and nourish my life and art. Having an intimate connection with nature is important for experiencing directly the elements and seasons.
My art practice is the expression of conscious and subconscious perceptions and responses, where internal and external landscapes coalesce. JeT

Spark of Nature!
An exhibition of paintings by Evelyn Dunning & Juliet E Tilson Impressions, memories and fascination of nature inspires these two artists living on the NSW north coast, Australia. Evelyn Dunning and Juliet Tilson share a connection with the land and sea, their artworks speak of dynamic forces and submerged currents. Evelyn’s paintings convey vibrancy and life, ranging from the bold representation of a crashing wave, to the stillness of a moment in an old forest, to a country memory. Juliet’s abstracted paintings journey, float and dissolve, above, beneath and through earthy, watery and wooded realms. Her explorations sense the spark of vitality in nature itself. Evelyn and Juliets’ intuitive responses to the spark of nature are imaginative, slightly weird and deeply personal. Artist Residency - Police Point Vic April 2019
