Eleanor Ann Kramer
Eleanor's bright, observational, and diverse body of work continues to develop as her connection to the Tasmanian landscape deepens. |
Eleanor is a Tasmanian fine art painter and jeweller living and working in the Huon Valley.
Artist Statement:
Eleanor's richly coloured and textural oil paintings zoom in and out of the landscape, drawing attention to simple moments that may otherwise be missed. Her practice flows from keen observation and delighted imagination as she paints en plein air (outside) or gathers inspiration to take back to her studio to work from photographs and memory. Her emerging practice continually evolves as she absorbs and collaborates with the shifting landscape. Informed by cross-cultural experiences and a passion for the natural world, art has been and remains an essential point of connection between herself, the landscape, and the community of people she lives among. Bio:
Eleanor's love of art, culture, and landscape was formed early in her life by the years spent living abroad with her family. Her formal foundation in fine art began at Bethel University in Minnesota, where she studied painting, sculpture, and humanities. During those four years, she won multiple awards for her dedication in the studio. In 2022, Eleanor immigrated to Tasmania. In the midst of life-changing transitions she remained committed in the development of her creative practice. She has built connections with galleries around Tasmania and Australia, exhibiting both paintings and jewellery. Her collectable artwork has been awarded in local and international competitions. In 2025 she was a selected finalist in the Henry Jones art prize. |
