Round 1 Desiree Crossing

Desiree Crossing (b.1981) is an Australian contemporary painter, based in Perth, Western Australia. Specialising in portraiture, Desiree’s sumptuous oil paintings speak to classical painting traditions, whilst embodying an unmistakably modern spirit. Her tendency to covert symbolism and the uncanny directness of the paintings, set up a feeling of flickering between the exposed and the concealed in any relationship, a hint towards the powerful connection between our character, comfort with disclosure and dynamics of personal boundaries.
