Reece Tong

My art is exciting and fun.

My work has been exhibited and sold in Sydney, Melbourne, Paris and New York as well as New Zealand.

I paint, draw and do 3D work, on found objects. I often use one image or symbol in a painting or sculptural piece before moving onto another symbol in the next thing I do. I also use words in my paintings.

A lot of my inspiration comes out of my own head, but I also like looking at magazines and books.

For many years I painted at Vincents then I came to Pablos. I have met a lot of new people here and I have my own space to work in.

My favorite artist is Picasso.
