Akasha Mead Art - more about the artist, my art journey

my art journey

My art career began at 19 when I dropped out of a fine art degree after just three weeks.

I started selling my first commissioned artworks to friends and family, and that soon grew into a part-time business.

I then spent years making a creating artwork while travelling the world and eventually settled in Scotland where my art practice continued.

In 2024 I returned to my home in Australia and my passion and inspiration have propelled my art journey to new heights.

the story so far..

While living in Scotland for 9 years I was lucky enough to be in a number of group exhibitions at various local galleries, including The Bield, Blackruthven and Birnam Arts, Dunkeld.

In Cairns, I was a finalist in the 2025 Annual Art awards where two of my works were chosen to be exhibited at the Cairns Art Gallery. My work has also been on display at the Tanks Art Centre.

In 2025, I was a solo exhibitor at The Other Art Fair in Sydney for the first time. My work is also on permanent display at Artists@Work located in Cairns.
