Bella McGoldrick is an artist based in Australia. Over the past eight years she has evolved into a one-woman creative studio - now based in Byron Bay, Australia with her husband and their twins, building a direct-to-collector practice that freely blends design, illustration, and hyperrealist drawing. Working predominantly in colored pencil, she typically draws from her own photographs, working meticulously, section by section, to transform everyday, worn objects - coffee cups, desserts, tray remnants - into oversized still lifes that shimmer with texture and memory. These pieces celebrate the overlooked, demand a second look, and reveal traces of intimacy and place through painstaking layers of detail that can take over 100 hours to complete.
