Biography

Monique Tippett lives and works in Dwellingup, 100km southeast of Perth. She moved there 13 years ago with her husband, son and daughter in an impulsive leap of faith. Her instinctive attraction to the southwest forests changed her life. After studying full time for two years at The Australian School of Fine Wood she put her new skills to use to create beautifully finished artworks using timber from the local area. Her art is inspired by the forested environment she lives in. Its moods are her muse. What you see on the wall is pure feeling, a vision of her personal relationship with the forested landscape. The works are landscapes, images filtered, distilled through Moniques creative psyche. They show the changing of light through the day and across the seasons.

Artist Statement

My work is an exploration of my passion for the forest environment of the South West of WA. Living and working in the forest is a constant and rich source of inspiration for me. I am surrounded by its moods; exhilarated by its beauty; humbled by its wild danger. Timber is my canvas of choice.
