Sam Broadhurst

Sam’s artistic journey began during his Bachelor of Science studies at Melbourne University and research work at Peter MacCallum Cancer Institute. In the late 1990s, he honed his skills in drawing and composition under abstract expressionist Yvonne Audette. Relocating to Western Australia 24 years ago, Sam has focused on landscapes, participating in 21 solo exhibitions through his career.

Over the past 15 years, he has delved into Renaissance materials, crafting a contemporary version of Da Vinci's oil medium from walnuts sourced locally. Sam's art is a dialogue between himself and the natural world, grounded in his profound connection to the landscape and reciprocated through his meticulous selection and utilisation of art materials.

"Painting anchors me to a greater sense of purpose. It is essential and can only be satisfied through my creative approach—exploring paint and colour as a means of gaining a deeper understanding of where I live. For almost 40 years, I have been pursuing the intangible nature of the raw landscape.

Art, for me, is about sharing an idea, fostering understanding, and creating awareness.

The Greeks spoke of hesychia—an evenness of mind that fosters stillness. Through my work, I explore a narrative of that search. The landscape where I live offers a quietude, allowing me to pursue and embrace my quest for calm in an increasingly demanding world. Nature provides a space to step outside myself, regain balance, and fully embrace the present. Painting can capture one such moment—an invitation to sit quietly, reflect, and exist without distraction."
