Natalie Jayne

Alcohol ink & collage artist bringing the colour, texture and wonder of native Australian flora and fauna to Melbourne.

Hi, I'm Natalie

Bringing the magic of colour into every room

Natalie Jayne is an Australian modern abstract artist working in alcohol ink and collage, based in Melbourne on Bunurong Country. Her art has always been her voice — a sanctuary from the busyness of life, and a way to unjumble a mind that's always buzzing with ideas.

Inspired by the native flora and fauna of the Australian landscape — vibrant proteas, eucalypts, kookaburras and platypus — Natalie layers beautifully pre-inked alcohol ink papers into bold, joyful collage artworks. Every piece is a chapter of her life: a memory, a story, and a piece of her heart.
