“I am proud to carry on the tradition of art in the Whisson family into its third generation. I'm always searching for a subtle lyrical abstracted subtext - a continuing desire to paint light and its effect on my chosen subject. When painting I am sculpting the image out of carefully placed shadows. I am mesmerized by the magic and challenge that awaits me every time I return to my easel.”
Colley Whisson was born in Brisbane, Australia on the 6th May, 1966. He is a third generation artist carrying the Whisson name. He has always had a love of painting the light and its effect on his chosen subject. After doing a year of picture framing he began oil painting in 1986. When painting Colley aims for a realist image with as much artistic content paying close attention to the arrangement of each painting to maximise the visual image. He has had numerous successful solo and joint exhibitions, prizes, judging appointments to his credit. His teaching skills are in demand throughout Australia and in overseas locations. He is the author of many magazine articles with “Australian and International Artist” publications over the years and his first book
“Creating Impressionist Landscapes in Oil” in 2001 followed by a demonstration Video/DVD which was released in 2003 to great acclaim. Colley’s much anticipated second book and demonstration DVD’s “Impressionist Painting Made Easy” was released in May, 2009. Colley was invited to represent Chroma Australia Pty Ltd as one of their Ambassadors for their Archival Oil Paint Range. Colley continues to build his reputation on the International stage and exhibits in galleries abroad. Colley has a genuine love of music and uses this to influence his working day.
