The Artist

AinsleyFine-line & black & grey · Melbourne

Working between drawing and skin, Ainsley treats every commission as an editorial piece — composed for the body, refined in consultation, and reduced until only the essential line remains.

Based in Melbourne and working from La Rue Galleryin Bentleigh, the portfolio favours quiet ornament over spectacle: botanicals, soft black & grey gradients and fine ornamental forms.
