Alice Linford Forte

Biography

I grew up in Margaret River and have been passionate about creating art for as long as I can remember. Travel fuels my desire to paint and I’m constantly snapping photos of people and places that inspire my artworks. I began practicing as a professional artist in 2010 when I hosted my first solo exhibition at my home studio in Forest Grove. Following that I exhibited at various venues in the region before being represented by the Margaret River Gallery. For 10 years I sold and exhibited through the MR gallery, until they closed their doors in 2020. I’m now represented by Jahroc Margaret River and have relocated to Denmark for a bit of a sea change.

Artist Statement

Through my art I try to express myself as authentically as possible. My work is an extension of my mood, executed through colours, shapes, lines and empty spaces. My approach to painting embodies so many characteristics of my lifestyle; the motions of shifting, changing, moving & experimenting.
