Meet the Artist

Orenda Joy Green is an artist who works from home in an elevated area of Adelaide, South Australia, surrounded by mature gum trees and birdsong. With a vast array of birds such as cockatoos, magpies, and kookaburras inhabiting the area, Orenda is never at a loss for art inspiration.

Guided by a love for observation and a fascination with nature, Orenda’s work blends careful attention to detail with a playful, expressive style. Each piece is a celebration of the natural world, inviting you to notice moments of beauty found in everyday life.

A strong advocate for sustainability, Orenda produces her work using eco-conscious materials and practices wherever possible, reflecting her commitment to creating art that respects the environment.
