« Reality becomes abstract, and color, shape and texture consume the canvas. I call for the viewer to explore my world. »
Norma Tahhan is a prizewinning artist from Australia whose paintings have been featured in solo and group shows nationally. Passionate about creating art ever since she was young, Tahhan is inspired by the beauty of the natural world and the spiritual landscape within a physical one. She creates abstract works of pastel and charcoal on paper that communicate the hidden energy of her surroundings through bold colors and sharp lines.
