Jo Waite Original Artwork Acrylic on Canvas Framed "On the Rise"

Jo Waite is a contemporary Australian artist working from her studio located on the NSW east coast.​

Her style is representational yet painterly, with an ultra-keen eye for detail. While some may see her work falling into the realist genre, Jo prefers to think of herself as an artist who paints detail rather than as a realist painter. A full time artist, Jo has enjoyed a life-long love of art and has been drawing since she could hold a pencil. As winner of the 4th Annual Small Works Art Prize in Gosford (November 2017) and the Still Life section of the 2018 Sydney RES, Jo’s style of painting is very much in demand.

This particular work was created in 2019 and is framed beautifully in oak timber that compliments the colours of the work well. Featuring a close-up frame of the Sydney Opera House that captures the grandeur and magic within, this work captures something very special.
