Artist Profile — Phoebe Stone

Phoebe is a self-taught Cammeraygal / Sydney-based artist working in oil pastels. In her work, Stone explores the beauty and delight to be found in a well-balanced coming together of composition, colour, pattern and texture. Scenes of the domestic, whether food or the accoutrement of daily life, are drawn and drawn again by Stone in her signature urgency, impatient to see their pleasing forms and arrangements take shape on the paper.

In October of 2022, Phoebe Stone's first solo show - 'Sea Call' - was held with Gallery Rayé, at L’air Studio in Noosaville, Queensland.

‘Sea Call’ is a body of work that explores an imagined weekend with Stone's late grandfather on his yacht — ‘The Sea Call’. Having been lost at sea in the late 1960s, before the artist was born, each artwork captures imagined moments between the pair. Light lunches of freshly-caught fish are cobbled together in the cabin, apéritifs are sipped on deck, stories are swapped and the light — skipping across the water’s surface — is watched…
