MEDIUM: Oil Paint | Watercolor Paint | Graphite | Pen & Ink | Sculptor
SPECIALTY: ✔ Finding Your Artistic Voice (Narrative) ✔ Technique & Demos ✔ Everyday Sketchbooks
Mostert’s contemporary art practice is 35 years young and involves drawing, painting, sculpture, and public art.
Her work has been built around the search for collected personal objects, a love of natural history and curated public museum collections which can become quirky and crisp conversations around memory, collection, curation, and value. Her daily habit of drawing in a sketchbook feeds her practice.
Mostert holds a Bachelor of Fine Art from Queensland College of Art and has had 18 solo shows and been involved in more than 70 group shows in both regional and commercial galleries. She has won several awards and been a finalist in many National art prizes including the KAAF Art Prize, Redland Art Awards, Archibald Salon de Refuses, Jacaranda Drawing Prize, and Marie Ellis Prize for Drawing.
Mostert has over 20 years teaching experience with workshops and artist in residencies.
