Oil on Caravaggio Linen

Award winning Painter & Poet Belinda Rogers paints from a studio in Australia's oldest artist colony, where she devotes her life to her work amidst the legacy of prominent Australian artists.
Nurturing techniques acquired from her early childhood, Belinda has broken away from traditional painting to create a unique voice in abstraction. Her paintings are an immersion of formlessness and are exhibited in local and international exhibitions. Her poetry has been obtained by several poetry publications and journals and her own compilation of poetry was released in 2015 with her book ‘Flower of Three Dawn.’

"There is no technique

There is only experience

Using cloths,

I wipe the image clean of itself

And release the burden of interpretation

My art does not seek an image

It becomes its refuge

Just as music is a refuge for words

Tone, a refuge of language

I sit and watch paint move

And devote myself to sitting.”
