Wendy Cummins

Wendy is a multi-disciplined artist living on the northern beaches.  Having always led an active, outdoor life, she finds connection, calmness and inspiration in the natural environment, and this is very evident in her work.

As a mostly self-taught artist, she describes herself simply as a creative, and her practice as drawing-based. She has a love of material and texture, which has led her work through many mediums and methods, including pencil, graphite, charcoal, watercolour, gouache, ink and more. 

Wendy’s recent work with wool and textile is made up of layers of colour, line and texture to build sculptural images. Her work is slow, meditative, and tactile, giving her a strong, satisfying connection to both her work and the subject.
