About the Artist

Olivia Alexander is a contemporary artist who was born in London but grew up in Australia. It was there she found a passion for the rugged coastal landscapes and oceans that are now her artistic focus.

 In 2001, she began to pursue an artistic career and undertook nine years of art training, eventually specializing in mixed media. Olivia uses unique techniques in a combination of acrylics, inks, watercolours, mineral pigments and gold leaf to create paintings in contemporary abstract.

 Her aim is to capture the spirit of the ocean and coastal landscape using an alchemy of mixed media, design elements and formed compositions inspired by the natural world.

Exhibiting extensively, Olivia Alexander has received nine international awards in recognition of her work. In 2022, she has been nominated for the Palm Art Award in Germany, and  a Silver medal from the Society of Arts, Sciences & Letters in Paris.

Olivia was one of 10 international artisans selected for inclusion in the Artsy Shark ‘Artful Holiday Gift Guide Dec. 2021’. Olivia’s artworks are owned by private collectors in many countries and since 2003, she has exhibited or been represented by galleries and curators in cities such as Paris, New York, Chicago, Rome, Bologna, Sydney, Kolkata and Singapore, to name a few.

 She works as a professional artist from her Gold Coast studio in Queensland, Australia.
