Silly Pear
ARTIST BIO
Silly Pear grew up in a very creative family in a small country town in northwest NSW. Having a father who was an artist and a mother who was an art teacher gave me a lot of time to explore many different mediums and there was always something to draw or paint with at home.
After High school, I went and studied graphic design in Canberra where I was introduced to illustration and the digital image-making programs which I use today as well as the traditional techniques.
Now residing in Sydney where I've lived for the past few years.
My work draws a lot of my inspiration from childhood and pop culture of when I was growing up, so a lot of comics and cartoons and movies.
