​I am a Sydney born artist now living in Noosa.  I have been painting for over 25 years and love to create contemporary textured landscape paintings and fluid abstract paintings as well as floral and wildlife paintings.  I paint in Acrylic, Mixed Media and Oils.   I love to experiment and in recent times have painted in Oil and Cold Wax and have also taught Flow Art to my students.  I am very fortunate to live in times with such diverse materials.  

The Sunshine Coast is a wonderful inspiration for my seascapes and my travels in the outback have also provided inspiration for my landscape paintings.

For five months every year, I spend time in my other property in Queenstown, New Zealand where I am inspired by the wonderful alpine vista to create textured mountain paintings and my extensive garden is a creative source for my floral artworks.

I have had many solo exhibitions both in Australia and New Zealand and I also give workshops from my studio in Noosa.  If you like my style of painting, I am happy to do commissions.

I am represented in Australia by the following on-line galleries
Bluethumb.com.au
Artloversaustralia.com
Studioart.com
and in New Zealand
Central Art Gallery, Queenstown
The Cloakroom Gallery, Queenstown

I hope you enjoy looking at my artwork and if you have an interest in any of the paintings, I would love to discuss my work with you and can be contacted by email criddingtonjones@gmail.com  or by phone 61 0418715008.
