Originally from UK, Abigail Parker has been a frustrated artist since leaving High School. Retiring from full-time work finally gave her the opportunity to study Art, at TAFE then OUA, and she is now pursuing a belated artistic career as a painter in watercolours and oils.
Combining her two lifelong passions, Nature and Art, Abigail has refined her artistic practice into two associated streams… working in watercolour and pastels for detailed botanical and wildlife studies, and in oils for larger ‘statement’ pieces. Her artwork is collected locally, interstate, and internationally.
Abigail’s artwork focuses on the inhabitants and habitat around Albany W.A,, exploring environmental issues. She is deeply concerned with highlighting the plight of our increasingly rare and endangered flora and fauna.
Currently working with ArtSouthWA (Board), Phoenix Fine Arts, and Albany Botanic Art Group… Abigail exhibits regularly with these groups. However, her artwork is mainly available through her Lower King Studio/Gallery – during regular Open Studio’s and exhibitions, or by appointment. You may also purchase Abigail’s unique artwork online, through her website store.
Abigail now teaches classes in drawing, botanical art, and watercolours.
