Combining large paintings with works on paper, Pamela Honeyfield’s work is a bold gestural document embodying the artist’s sensitive perception of landscape while simultaneously capturing the energy of places travelled and experienced.

 

Music and the action of painting are integral to Honeyfield’s studio practice. So too the process of collecting a visual language and translating an inner dialogue of observation and memory; grounded with gestural mark-making while recalling the experience of the environment through rich colour.

 

“The work will often take on a life of its own and each colour and brush stroke made will dictate the next. I just allow the colour and marks and shapes to play and interact. There are so many variables when creating a work and you have to be willing to lose and regain images until it’s resolved. It’s a dance and relationship with the surface.”

 

Honeyfield is a Sydney based artist working from her studio in Lilyfield. She graduated from the National Art School in 1991, before completing her Masters in Art Therapy at the University of Western Sydney.

 

She has been a finalist in numerous awards including the Kings School Art Prize (2024), Fisher’s Ghost Art Award (2023, 2019, 2004), the Blake Prize (1991), Paddington Art Prize (2021, 2017), NSW Parliament Plein Air (2017), Pro Hart Broken Hill Outback Art Prize (2019, 2016), Stanthorpe Art Prize (2018) and the John Leslie Art Prize (2018). She won the Gosford Regional Gallery Art Prize (2015, 2014), the Hunters Hill Art Prize (2019) was the recipient of the Defiance Award & Residency in conjunction with the Paddington Art Prize (2021) for her work Red Rust Hills N’Dhala.

 

Honeyfield’s work was acquired by the Allen Arthur Robinson Collection in Sydney and is held in private collections throughout Australia, France, Canada, the USA, Japan, England and Hong Kong.
