Visual Art – Melbourne

Meet Heather & Jimmy A couple based in Melbourne Australia – Heather and Jimmy Scarff seek to explore the rhythmic sensations of nature through the untamed, elusive medium of resin. Their immersive, abstract creations offer a highly charged, concoction of colour and rippling movement. The intensity of their work is witnessed on an almost microscopic level of detail, offering a chance to get lost in the beauty of chaos. ​ Heather has an extensive background in exploring the arts, typically through photorealist portraits. Through adopting resin as her new medium, Heather has been able to free herself from documenting detailed form and be lead by her creative intuition. Despite the abstract nature of her work, there is always an underlying theme derived from her deep connection with the natural landscape. ​ Jimmy is impulsive in the way he works, finding pleasure in exploring chemical reactions spawned in each of his artworks. He continually challenges the combinations of different media to deliver interesting and divergent virtuosity in his art. Jimmy is passionate on all aspects of Studio16 Art starting with the construction of the hardwood boards right through to the completed product. Heather and Jimmy are both environmentally mindful and passionate about the earth that supports our lives. They donate money from the sale of their art to Animals Australia, to engender the protection and welfare of animals. ​ Support Animals Australia
