Biography
Ileigh Hellier is an artist from Newcastle, Australia. Her paintings are about wonderment, sensitivity, and curiosity in relation to the natural landscape.

Her work is playful and contemplative, dotted with references to abstraction with a healthy dose of naivety. Ileigh received a highly commended award in the Glover prize in 2020 and is represented by Curatorial and Co in Sydney, NSW and AK Bellinger Gallery in Inverell, NSW.
