Free, Miranda

Miranda is an Australian artist who paints landscapes, people and still life. She originally trained in science, education and communications before focusing on her art career. She is a contemporary realist who loves working from life, mainly using oils to produce her works.  Training at an Atelier style school in Brisbane, she practised part-time until she was able to work full-time on her art after moving to Perth, WA, in 2013. In 2016 she travelled around Australia painting the landscape, then moved to Kuala Lumpur for a little over two years, where she continued to paint and exhibit. She now spends time between her delightful bespoke garden studio gallery in Nannup (The Eyrie – open when she is at home) and Fremantle. She has exhibited widely in 10 solo and, since 2018, in around 40 group exhibitions in Australia and internationally. She has undertaken five artist residencies across Australia and overseas, won several prizes and been selected as a finalist in prestigious art awards. Miranda founded the Blackwood River Arts Trail and Blackwood River Film Festival events that run around Easter each year.
