ALLISON TAPLIN
Allison Taplin lives in the Macedon Ranges in Victoria and works full time as a registered nurse in a metropolitan hospital. She paints in the snippets of her spare time and is immensely inspired by the diverse Australian landscape. She is especially drawn to the rolling hills, wide open fields and tree-covered mountains of her surroundings. Painting was initially a bereavement therapy after the loss of her son a few years ago and she now creates serene cloudscapes in a small studio space – ‘Little Leif Studio’ – in his memory.
