Originally from rural Tasmania, Paige has been creating art for as long as she can remember. Beginning with watercolour, she spent years experimenting independently and developing her artistic voice outside of traditional art education before eventually being drawn to the depth, texture and emotional richness of oil painting.

Largely self-taught, Paige's work explores the emotional connection between humans and animals, built on the belief that we are not so different from our wild counterparts. Through expression, atmosphere and intimate composition, her paintings invite viewers to see pieces of themselves reflected back through each subject, using animals as a lens to explore emotion in its rawest and most instinctive form.

Tigers, in particular, have become a recurring and recognisable focus throughout her work, symbolising that both strength and softness, power and vulnerability can coexist within us.

Increasingly, her practice has expanded beyond the canvas, using art as a means of supporting wildlife conservation and fostering deeper connections between people and the natural world.

Driven by the belief that art has the power to inspire empathy and create meaningful change, Paige collaborates with zoos, conservation organisations and community initiatives to help tell the stories of threatened species and contribute to their protection. Through her work, she hopes to encourage others to not only appreciate wildlife, but to feel a sense of responsibility towards preserving it for future generations.

Purpose Driven Art

Conservation is at the heart of my practice and I strive to be transparent about the impact we make as a collective. You can read about the past, current and upcoming ways that PDA and The Keeper's Club are supporting conservation.
