Anh Nguyen lives and paints from Thirroul on the NSW South Coast, with her partner and 4 children. She was recently the winner of the Basil Sellers Art Prize 2019, a finalist in the Len Fox Painting Award 2019 and previously a finalist in the Eutick Memorial Still Life Award, St George Art Awards and Little Things Art Prize.

“My paintings are a response to the visual excitement found in life; to prolong the viusal joy of noticing something interesting or beautiful. My motifs revolve around daily rhythms, human activity and small moments. I am interested in finding that space between perceptual painting and something more abstract, and using colour relationship and shapes to describe the effects of light.”
