MISE EN PLACE

The artists you need to know – and buy – before everybody else finds out.

Gabrielle Penfold (@gabriellepenfold)

The Sydney painter has amassed an Instagram following some 21,000 people, all fans of her impressionistic, sensual style and her love of life’s little luxuries: oysters, fish and fizz. gabriellepenfold.com

Emma Gale (@emmagale_artist)

The lush colours of the fruit bowl inspire this Northern Rivers-based artist (as seen on this page), whose still lifes always begin with fresh produce. emmagale.com.au

Anna Vu (@goodfoodcrapdrawing)

You can commission Vu for an original Good Food Crap Drawing of your own favourite meal, or choose from hers (opposite), including the 10 William Street pretzel and a steaming bowl of Gumshara ramen. goodfoodcrapdrawing.com

Gemma Leslie (@gemleslie)

Food is in all aspects of Leslie’s practice, from the graphic designer’s social enterprise, Food For Everyone, to her mood-elevating paintings. gemleslie.com
