Serota is a fabulous Victoria-based artist. Currently writing her memoirs, Serota is deserving of a wider audience for her work. Using flat-plane perspective, bright colours and soft brushwork, she creates modernist paintings with matters of subject like still-life imagery and scenarios from her personal life. Her work is in the vein of pros like Matisse, Chagall and Picasso, but never without her own special twist.
We were lucky enough to take a recent fruitful trip to Phyllis's abode, where we acquired some stellar pieces. Shown here is a wide and luxurious acrylic on canvas that boasts a mix of hard and velvet-like textures. It would be fabulous featured in a dining or living room of any design genre.
