Australian Artist Teresa Mundt is based in Buderim, on Queensland's Sunshine Coast.  She began her artistic career in her early twenties as a freelance cartoonist, and later taught herself to paint using acrylics.  Her cartooning background has left a strong imprint on her current style, and Teresa’s quirky artworks are a stylised fusion of caricature and bold colour.

“It is of no interest to me to observe a thing in nature and painstakingly attempt to recreate it in paint.  I rarely paint from life, or from photographs – instead I paint the characters inside my head.  I love the challenge of dragging something from the depths of my imagination and bringing it to life.  I think it helps to remind others too that their imaginations are powerful and infinite.”

Teresa’s work explores the themes of joy, contentment, humour, and life’s simple pleasures.  She has built a strong following on social media with a series of high-speed art videos demonstrating her unconventional painting process.  Teresa now conducts art workshops around the country, and regularly exhibits in solo and group art exhibitions throughout Queensland.  Her works are represented in collections in Australia and overseas.
