Maria Radun

I am a contemporary realist painter from the Mornington Peninsula.

I paint in oils and make drawings in a realist style. Inspired by light, form, and atmosphere, I seek to capture moments of beauty and awe in everyday life. 

I work across many genres, but I am most passionate about nature and portraiture. I find working from life most rewarding, as I endeavour to portray what I observe in the most honest and captivating way, yet sometimes I also like to add something unexpected into my compositions to delight the imagination.
