Alanah Jarvis

Born: 1984

Hometown: Melbourne

Based in: Melbourne

Alanah Jarvis, an Australian water artist, has gained global recognition for her exquisite oceanscapes and rainscapes. Her oil paintings have been commended for their ability to capture the essence of rolling movements and the interplay of light on the surface, evoking a spiritual and abstract reality. As a former Scuba Instructor, Alanah strives to impart a sense of tranquillity and serenity that emanates from being in, on, under, or near water.

A donation from every sale will go towards the ‘Swim it Forward’ foundation to help fund swimming lessons for Aussie kids from low income families. Evidence of this will be sent with the Certificate of Authenticity.
