ABOUT THE ARTIST

Eva Beltran is a Sydney based artist.

She has an expressionist approach to subjects, aiming to depict an emotional experience more than a physical reality.

Her work explores landscapes and memories through abstract figurations where intricate perspective is conveyed through linework variations and layers of paint. These storytelling paintings often incorporate symbolic elements.

Eva's works have been selected as finalists in various art prizes over the last few years, including prestigious awards such as the Glover Art Prize (Evandale, TAS); the Paddington Art Prize (Sydney, NSW); the Mosman Art Prize (Sydney, NSW); the Kilgour Art Prize (Newcastle, NSW); the Lethbridge Landscape Art Prize (Brisbane, QLD) or the Fleurieu Biennale Art Prize (McLauren Vale, SA).

Eva attended art school whilst growing up in Spain and trained in classical drawing and painting during her formative years.

She has a degree in Journalism; a Graduate Diploma in Scientific Journalism; a Masters in International Communications and has worked in healthcare PR and corporate communications for over 15 years.

Painting took centre stage in Eva's life in 2015.
