Serene Art

Serene Art Michelle Cocking, Owner and Painter of Serene Art. Selling own artwork and teaching adults and chil Serene Art is based in Anna Bay in Port Stephens, Australia.

Originally from the UK, I've lived in Australia for just over 10 years. The first year was spent living in Tennant Creek NT, the second in Rockhampton QLD, 11 years in Sydney and then settling more recently in Nelson Bay with my husband and 2 children. Drawing and painting is something I've had an interest in since a child so it's great to be able to share some of my work with you. My favourite su

bject to paint is people, in particular faces - there's so much in a face and in the eyes. For me there's nothing more relaxing than acrylic paint being pushed around a good quality canvas, it's so easy to get lost in what you're painting. My artworks include acrylic paint, charcoal, watercolour and mixed media. I like to draw upon emotions and experiences of local and desert landscapes from our travels around the globe as well as in Australia. In 2011 I won awards in the Mixed Media Class at the Blacktown Show. I'm able to reproduce my artwork on such media as canson paper, matt photographic paper and canvas utilising a fabulous printing supplier, also used by many professional photographers... however if you'd much rather purchase an original they're available too and just as reasonable. I use all of the finest materials, including Matisse Derivan paint. The supplier I use for canvas re-prints guarantees 75 years without fading. I'm also available for commissioning. Maybe you have an idea of what you'd like to see on your's or your child's wall but have no idea how to produce it, contact me and we can organise a time to talk. I hope these artworks make you smile :)

If you love arts and crafts, head to The Liquidators today in Nelson Bay. They’re closing down and all of their art supplies are on sale. Today is their last day, the doors will be closed from tomorrow! It’s a good reminder of why we need to support local stores. The Liquidators has been in business for 12 years but has struggled in recent times. Sad to see them go.

Here’s an original baby’s room artwork I’ve just finished. The colour palette has been a joy to work with. If you would like any artwork for home, get in touch, it could be that final piece that just finishes your room off beautifully

If you’re in Melbourne during the holidays, make sure you go to this… and allow yourself plenty of time to hang out there. Evenings are great with less people. It’s a beautiful way to immerse yourself in First Nations’ Art. I was there in September and would love an opportunity to visit again.

This is my first go at scratch art. It’s been fun and challenging all at the same time. Fun to try something new, challenging working out different tones. Next time I’ll work from a black and white photo, that should make it easier 😊

I’m thinking of putting 2 art workshops on these holidays. What would your young ones like to learn to draw, paint or sculpt? Which days of the week are best?
