A Pull from the Depths
Oil, oil stick, wax on 450gsm Belgium linen wrapped board
Brittany Ferns’ latest paintings conjure a world where myth and landscape intertwine, pulling viewers into lush, submerged realms. Mermaids drift through shadowed waters, rest beneath ancient trees, and dissolve into the depths—figures suspended between worlds, neither fully seen nor entirely lost. With rich, layered greens, Ferns evokes the dual nature of the wild: both a place of renewal and an untamed mystery. Each painting becomes a threshold, a space where folklore lingers, and nature’s quiet magic hums beneath the surface, waiting to be discovered.

About the Artist
Brittany Ferns
Brittany Ferns is an Australia-based mixed media artist, whose work derives from an attention to nature and her immediate environment. Ferns’ work starts with creating a unique surface to work on-using thick linen, muslin and burlap on board. Next comes the layering of mediums; adding either raw pigments to plaster, Japanese rice papers, acrylics and oil paints. The process involves the physical motion of adding and taking away, revealing the history of the artwork and underlying imperfections.
