Tell Me I'm Pretty

EXPRESSIVE & VIBRANT ABSTRACT

Tell Me I’m Pretty is bold, playful, and full of life. Painted on raw natural linen, this original abstract artwork is bursting with colour, movement, and that kind of confident energy that doesn’t wait for permission. It’s layered with bright hues, dynamic shapes, and brushstrokes that feel as fearless as the title.

This piece is all about embracing boldness and creativity without holding back. The natural texture of the linen lets the colours sit clearly and confidently—there’s space for each shape and brushstroke to stand out. From sweeping forms to finer, detailed marks, every layer invites you to take a closer look and notice something new.

The palette moves across strong pinks, citrus tones, warm neutrals, and fresh blues, each working together to create a sense of momentum. There’s a playful tension in the composition—a kind of visual conversation between chaos and control. It’s not trying to be subtle, and that’s exactly the point.

Painted in my Perth studio, Tell Me I’m Pretty is an original contemporary abstract painting made to bring energy, colour, and a sense of freedom to your space. It would suit anyone drawn to expressive art that carries personality and movement.

The piece is professionally framed in Tasmanian oak and ready to hang (options for other frame colours or unframed available).

If you’re looking for original Australian abstract art that’s confident, full of texture, and unapologetically expressive, this one might be the perfect match.
