Collection: Ursula Kiessling

Adelaide artist Ursula Kiessling developed her style in the seventies when she was living in her native Germany. In Australia, she picked up painting again in 1989, after her family had grown up. Ursula had a very successful solo exhibition in Adelaide in 1991 and has taken part in numerous exhibitions in South Australia, Sydney and Broken Hill. Her art is widely known in Australia through her range of greeting cards.

Ursula's work is inspired by her travels across the Outback of Australia. Her artwork is distinctive and captures the different textures and gradients of sand, ground, and shrubs that she has come across, during her travels around Australia. Everything that you notice about her work has been given careful consideration to be as authentic to the place that exists in reality - everything from vegetation to wildlife to rocks!
