Studio Visit: Ren Whaleboat

Ren Whaleboat works on Awabakal Country with creative roots descending from North Queensland and the Torres Strait Islands. She creates in her signature line work through both traditional and digital mediums, drawing from the beauty of all diverse hair, skin and facial features that celebrate and empower the individuality of what the BIPOC representation upholds.

“My studio is a hidden gem on a hill with sunset views over the Hunter Valley. I blast loud music, which is so important to my creativity. The concrete walls soundproof my creative getaway from the outside bustle.”
