Oliver Fontany is a neurodiverse artist living and working in Sydney, Australia.

Fontany has developed his artistic skills through pen and ink, and has expanded his artistic repertoire to include paintings, collage, installation, textiles & animation.

Fontany works with a linear style, using a pen, his heavy hand will carve bold expressive lines into his paintings and drawings. In conjunction, Fontany’s work typically focuses on expansive landscapes and deeply profound autobiographical paintings.

A stark contrast to his rigid line-work is his free-flowing application of colour to his art. Fontany typically chooses colours that have a stronger vibrancy which offsets the darker tones of his line-work. Fontany uses many methods to support his artist practice, including the use of photographic images as a reference for his artmaking.
