Helen Elphinstone-King (HELKINART)
Award winning Australian Watercolour Artist, now located in Belmont NSW, by the shores of beautiful Lake Macquarie, just north of Sydney ..recently moving back to my love of surf, sand & sailing <3 ….
My Watercolours, are painted in the style of Semi-Realistic Impressionism, with a diverse range of subjects from Country to Coastal. All are strongly influenced from my love of sailing, boats & the ocean, add to that, growing up in the country with the love of my horses from a young age, whilst gaining knowledge through a wide variety of experiences along the way.
I, also enjoy entering Art Prizes, which support local Communities and gives everyone a chance to see & buy my work as well.
Artworx are available for sale through my secure Online shop … New paintings added regularly..
