05.04.2022 Bewitching Hour It’s been a while since I have contributed art. With such difficult times world wide art is less on my mind. But today I decided to perhaps bring a little distraction and joy. I am sure the feeling of the need to magically escape is even more relatable at the moment. I hope this brings some joy and imagined relief.

In Vintage Dolls we find ourselves in the secret garden of our childhood fantasies. The images depict surreal scenes where imagination and child’s play interconnect to gradually replace the reality of their world. A girl steps into her imagined story, a decrepit house exposes its secrets as rays of moonlight stream through jagged holes torn in the wall. Big objects shrink to a fraction of their size, while tiny objects appear out of all proportion.

25.01.2022 Blue Day Captured moment of silent implosion. . . Marionetts. Birthday Wish - 90 x 105cm Edition #8 .... . Issues of isolation and loss of control, under the weight of daily life are portrayed in the Marionettes series. The works show women caught in moments of silent implosion. The pace, pressures and rigours of daily life have reached a crisis point, In the image Blue Day a woman hangs, as if catatonically, from the picture-rail in her bedroom, as a little kingfisher observes helplessly. A dominant blue door lies open, or is it closing?. . . . . @antheapolsonart @arthousegallery @contour.gallery #samanthaeverton #marionettes #art #photographyart #blueday #implosion #surreal #contemporaryart #magicrealism #australianartists #dreamlike #fineartphotography #portrait #limitededition #colour #forografia #arte #atrista #galleria

16.01.2022 @auswip Instagram takeover Hi, this is @samantha.everton. I’m a Melbourne-based fine art photographer with a taste for color-saturated magic realism and seeing the absurd in everyday interactions. My work focuses on issues of culture and identity, and the struggle of the individual to define themselves amongst the pressures and influences of society. My latest series, Indochine, explores how Western influences have intersected with Eastern traditions and values throughout ...history. Indochine was shot in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam, with a single character appearing throughout the series, changing chameleon-like with her makeup and clothing. I’ll be taking over the @auswip instagram account this week WILLOW - A sense of nostalgia. Beauty and stillness with a hint of menace from the barely visible snake coiled around her shoulder. . . . . . #auswip #womeninphotography #australianwomeninphotography #portraitphotography #fineart . #samanthaeverton #australianartist #indochine #limitededition #identity #contemporaryart #australianart #fineart #contemporaryphotography #fairytale #dreamlike #fantasy #portraiture #surrealart #surrealism # #photography #diversity #arte #fotografia #ritratto #fotodelgiorno #colour #portrait #artgallery #hypereal @antheapolsonart @arthousegallery @contour.gallery See more

09.01.2022 The devastation of the Australian bushfires has brought together communities in an incredible outpouring of support for those affected by the worst fires in our history. All of us at Arthouse Gallery have heard the call and today we take action. In contribution to the rebuilding and regeneration of our unique country, we are launching Art Takes Action! Arthouse Gallery's Bushfire Appeal. This is an online art auction. Thirty of our extraordinary artists have generously donate...d their artworks and nominated a charitable organisation defending, rebuilding lives, communities, wildlife and the land affected by this devastation. 100% of the successful bid in this auction will be given to the respective artist’s nominated charity. All together we are aiming to raise $60,000 in 7 days. Bidding closes Thursday 23 January at 5pm. We hope you can dig deep and help us reach this target, your generosity is changing the world. . . . #arttakesaction #arthousegallerybushfireappeal #ozartfireauction #ozbushfireartauction #australianartists #photoartist #samanthaeverton

08.01.2022 Welcome to my Artist Facebook Page. I will be posting my artwork and upcoming Exhibitions here. Thank you for following me over to this new page. I look forward to sharing my photo-art with you.

08.01.2022 Chameleon Captured moment of silent implosion. . . Marionetts - 90 x 105cm Edition #8 . . I came across this abandoned house, the previous resident of this humble dwelling was a WWII veteran in his 90’s who lived alone, although there was... presence of a past life in feminine trinkets and hand-sewn curtains. The place had been left unoccupied for some time and he seemed to have left quite unexpectedly.....the furniture and fittings were all intact, and some of his clothes were still hanging in the wardrobe. The bed was beautifully made-up in detail expectantly! . . . In the image Chameleon, there is a theatrical feel or perhaps the notion of a film still...a captured moment in time which has no beginning or end, an unfinished story . . NB. This work is captured incamera...can you guess how it was achieved? ....would you believe, a rock climbing harness around the characters waist under her dress and then bolted to the wall. I have fabulous memories creating this image. . . . @antheapolsonart @arthousegallery @contour.gallery #samanthaeverton #marionettes #art #photographyart #blueday #implosion #surreal #contemporaryart #magicrealism #australianartists #dreamlike #fineartphotography #portrait #limitededition #colour #forografia #arte #atrista #galleria See more

01.01.2022 Birthday Wish a favourite and possibly reflects how I feel tonight. Over the coming weeks I will post from my series Marionetts. Birthday Wish 90 x 105cm Edition #8 ... A sallow, burnished light streams across the floor to illuminate a once perfectly iced, pink birthday cake. In Birthday Wish a well dressed woman slumps, arms dangling listlessly....face plonked into an ill-fated masterpiece, as a commanding white swan looks on in disbelief. . . . . . @antheapolsonart @arthousegallery @contour.gallery @timgerardbarker #samanthaeverton #marionettes #art #photographyart #contemporaryart #creative #magicrealism #australiaartist#dreamlike #fineartphotography #surrealart #fineart #portrait #limitededition #colour #forografia #arte #artista #galleria
