Inspired by movement, texture, vibrant colours and the Australian landscape, the artwork of Helena Richardson-Collins expresses her unique and creative spirit. Not confined to one artistic medium, Helena expertly moves through a range of different mediums, at times blurring the distinctions, to create beautiful, unique and classic artworks and silk cloth or felt garments that are at once classic and timeless.
Each one of Helena's paintings are one-off pieces featuring brilliant colours and textures. Using layers of paints and bold strokes, Helena evokes the Australian landscape that is her inspiration while incorporating the movement and colour of dance. Magnificent work - love complementary colours and your wet-in-wet work on the silk reminds me of my water colors.

Your window caught my eye and the surprises and the originality within were a great delight - you are too good & talented to be hidden away. Think big your talent is exceptional & original. Really loved your work! I bought a beautiful painting from Helena as I loved it so much but I also wanted to take a part of Helena back to Scotland.
I have come all the way from St Kilda to find you, after falling in love with a coat I saw in Melbourne ( whereupon, I 'accosted' the lady ( wearing it ) to seek its provenance. Needless to say, the 'magic' you create extends beyond this one piece I saw and I will feel honoured to wear your creations.
