About the work

Fresh oysters, lemon wedges and a whole lemon are arranged on a classic blue-and-white striped tablecloth, accompanied by a refreshing cocktail. The vibrant colours and relaxed coastal atmosphere capture the simple pleasure of fresh Australian produce and an indulgent moment by the sea.

About the artist

From fresh oysters to blooming poppies, Charlie Kuo paints still life scenes that celebrate the flavours and beauty of Australia. Based in Brisbane and entirely self-taught, she turns simple objects into works of art that capture the joy of living and traveling. Charlie Kuo is a Brisbane-based self-taught artist whose journey began unexpectedly in 2020, when a simple paint-by-numbers birthday gift awakened her creative spirit. What started as a casual pastime soon grew into a daily practice, gradually evolving from a personal interest into a dedicated career. Her work focuses on still life, often drawing inspiration from Australian foods, landscapes, and travel experiences. With each piece, Charlie seeks to capture not only the form and colour of her subjects but also the stories and emotions they carry. Guided by the belief “Never try, never know,” she continues to explore and refine her craft, transforming ordinary moments into lasting works of art.
