Candyss Crosby

A passion for the natural environment is what drives artist Candyss Crosby to create her emotive, abstract landscapes. Going far beyond simple representation her connection with the land becomes an inward journey where memory and the creative process reshape reality in an “inner landscape” which evolves on the canvas in a play of light colour and texture.

Rarely a representation of a specific landmark or location, rather Candyss aims to convey the mood and spirit of a place and to evoke emotion and contemplation.

“I want to re-create the feeling of openness and expansiveness that I experience when
I’m out in the middle of nowhere – just the sky, the earth under my feet and me.”

Over the past 27 years, Candyss has exhibited in many galleries and events, both nationally and internationally, and her contemporary art can be found in both corporate and private collections worldwide.
