About Bec

Coastal landscape oil paint artist.

Who she is

An eye for detail and colour

Rebecca Callaghan is a coastal landscape oil paint artist from South Coast NSW specialising in commissioned artworks of your special place.

She paints from her home studio in Helensburgh: original one-of-a-kind works in oil, fine art prints and greeting cards, and commissions made for the place someone loves.

“My eye for detail and colour and love of the coast. My distinguishable drone view paintings and use of small brushes.”

The point of difference

The drone view

Most of Bec’s work looks straight down at the coast rather than across it — the reef shelves, the ocean pools, the sandbanks and the single surfer crossing clear water. It’s the view that makes her paintings recognisable as hers.

The detail comes from small brushes: colour built up slowly, in oil, until the water reads the way it does from above.
