25.01.2022 Working on the painting ‘Ametrine’ from the Summer Projects VII Exhibition earlier this year at @boomgallery ... this work has sold but there are a few still available at the gallery, check out their website for listings! #painting #studio #fineart #gallery #artistatwork #abstraction

25.01.2022 My Glint print hanging in our guest bedroom, accompanied by some velvet cushions from the Southern Skies series. We like to make our visitors feel like they are having a bit of an experience when they stay in our home, and that comes with immersing them in art, textiles and good books.

24.01.2022 Hanging with Finley in the hotel lobby of Mantra Epping, back when it first opened and our little man was much littler! Martinich&Carran were thrilled to be commissioned by Too Build to fit out this entire 260 room hotel with artwork; limited edition prints in the rooms and original artwork in the foyers. ... #prints #framedartwork #bespoke #martinichandcarran #rowenamartinich #limitededition #madeinmelbourne #Melbourne #interiors #interiordesign #australia #Melbourneartists #localdesign #Australianmade #Australianstyle #interiorstyle #colourfulart #interiorsinspo #homewares #homestyling #interiorstylist #interiordesigner #luxury #individual #hotel #hotelinteriors #hoteldesign See more

24.01.2022 This coastal-inspired mural was commissioned for a private home in Point Lonsdale. It graces a large curved wall in the main lounge and dining space of this beautiful architecturally designed space. The deep blues, greens and turquoises reference the changing colours of the ocean. The palette of the mural also borrows from that of the interiors. The building owners have a creative flair in the way they have used colour throughout the home, and this artwork was the final element to complete the interior. #art #urbanart #wallart #painting #artist #contemporaryart #murals #mural #interiors #interiordesign #design #homedecor #decor #home #interior #interiorstyling #homedesign #interiordecor #architecture #instahome #interiorinspo #interiorinspiration #homestyling #homeinspo #colourpop

23.01.2022 Stunning day on the @graincorp Goroke Silos as the sky comes to life. @geoffreycarran has chosen the perfect selection of blues don’t you think?! #muralpainting #silo #siloart #siloarttrail #regionalart #magpie #publicart #painting #Goroke

17.01.2022 Live painting at the Royal Exhibition Buildings, Carlton as part of the Equinox event last year. Such a rush of nerves, focus and excitement all mixed up in creating this work. I have the finished piece in my studio, and thinking of selecting the best sections to make smaller canvases. Who would like to see some crops? #livepainting #performance #performancepainting #abstractexpressionism #madeinmelbourne #Melbourne #interiors #interiordesign #Australia #Melbourneartist #localdesign #Australianmade #australianart #contemporaryart #fineart #pink #gesture #Australianstyle #interiorstyle #colourfulart #abstract #art #abstractexpressionism #painting #interiorsinspo #exhibition #newwork

15.01.2022 Earlier this year I had the experience of working on this massive project. This shot was taken close to the completion of this ceiling mural. An elevated and expansive ceiling that floats above the dining hall and gateway entrance of Moonee Ponds Central is the canvas for this 140 square metre public mural. Commissioned through Collide Public Art Agency for Mirvac, this work re-contextualises how painted installations can be integrated into urban spaces. Through Martinic...hs signature mark making, forms and abstraction, this work enhances the flow and movement of visitors through Moonee Ponds Central. #mural #muralpainting #publicart #ceilingpainting #contemporaryart #abstraction #abstractart #abstractexpressionism #madeinmelbourne #Melbourne #interiors #interiordesign #Australia #Melbourneartist #localdesign #Australianmade #australianart #contemporaryart #Australianstyle #colourfulart #interiorsinspo #architecture #architectural #Australianarchitecture #installation #painting #streetart #paint #onsite See more

14.01.2022 Getting to the final stages of this commission, the part where you have to be mentally prepared for each move / spray / gesture. Once complete, different sections of this painting will be reproduced into wallpapers for every room at @easthk - a design hotel in Hong Kong. This is a very exciting project and I cant wait to show you more as each stage unfolds! #easthk #ateast #redtmultiples #hotel #hotelfitout #designhotel #hotelinteriors #art #painting #studio #abstractart #commercialproject #rowenamartinich

13.01.2022 Time for some new brushes! I think these ones have done their dash. (They still work though...) #paintbrushes #painting #studio #inthestudio #brushes #artist #practice #rowenamartinich

13.01.2022 Nothing is more satisfying as an artist than to see your artwork in an amazing location. I am thrilled to have my work placed in @deloitteaus s new offices in Melbourne. Massive thanks to the team at @artpharmacy and @sarahweston for your beautiful curatorial work. It is an honour to be showcased amongst so many fantastic Australian artists. This piece was part of my Colourboss exhibition, and measures 2.4 metres high, by 6 metres long.

07.01.2022 Back in the days that I worked from my home studio - this is one of my old favorites. Things are pretty tidy in the space here - not too many drips on the wall or chaos strewn across the floor.

05.01.2022 One of my favourite things to do is collaborate, so it was very exciting when the team at Eleven Australia approached me to work with them to create the artwork for their 2018 holiday season packaging. With four tailored-made packs featuring some of Eleven Australias most sought after products, theres a combination to suit every hair type for the holiday season. I created an artwork specifically for Eleven Australia, and from this piece details have been selected ...to bring fun, playful energy to the Holiday collection. @elevenaustralia #colab #packagingdesign #artistcolab #collaboration #creatives @joeyscandizzo @andrewotoolestudios #abstractart #abstractpainting #art #painting #contemporaryart #artwork #design #fineart #instaart #creative #color #abstractartist #abstraction #hairstylist #fashion #beauty #hair #studio #haircare #melbourne #colabhair #rowenamartinich See more

02.01.2022 I love it when photos like this pop up in my profile! Gallery visitors relishing in works at @boomgallery - this is Galactic a large work that I have available at Boom! interestingly our bubs seem to be at a similar stage of development #Repost @letsmakeitworkbaby with @get_repost My little bubba said his first words only weeks ago and his first sentence today. I thought maybe with the second it wouldnt be so exciting but it truly is - watching the kids learn and grow is the most amazing joy. I write this thinking of all those in lockdown tonight, across our old suburb and neighbourhood. Hold those children close, love your neighbours from afar and please government send all the help that is needed to the many hundreds in the commission flats and areas in lockdown
