Artist

 

Vicki Moroney is an emerging acrylic artist who is living and working in the Clare Valley in South Australia.

Giving up the corporate world and  a subsequent move to the Clare Valley enabled Vicki to explore creative hobbies. She joined local art groups and received lessons from mentors Gerald Moore and Kerryn Hocking in the use of pastels for works featuring landscapes and flora.

When COVID hit, classes were cancelled,  so Vicki sought  online courses and discovered artists with a looser, more abstract style. Sheloved the vibrancy of colour and the more abstract way of approaching a painting.

Vicki usually identifies a theme and produces a series of works in both large and small pieces.

In June this 2024 Vicki won the Clare Valley Portrait Prize for her portrait of “Dan” a well-known and much-loved  local chef.
