ADRIEN ROUSSEAU

Adrien Rousseau, born in France in 1992, found his artistic identity after moving to rural Queensland at the age of 18. Captivated by the vibrant tropical lifestyle and the lush, colorful environment, he began translating this energy into his paintings. His style is characterized by bold, expressive brushstrokes and a vivid, almost dreamlike use of color, reflecting the vitality and warmth of his surroundings.

Rousseau’s work often depicts intimate gatherings, abundant still lifes, and tropical landscapes that brim with life and movement. Drawing inspiration from Fauvism and his connection to both French and Australian cultures, his paintings exude a joyous, celebratory tone, inviting viewers into his world of light, color, and shared moments. Whether capturing the lush greenery of Queensland or the camaraderie of a lively table, Rousseau’s art is a vibrant tribute to the beauty of life and community.
