Sonia Anton - Galatea

Galatea is a painting about stillness. Unlike a portrait, it is not about a specific person, but about a feeling. I used layers of blue to create a sense of depth and calm, allowing the figure to emerge through colour rather than detail. Inspired by the sea nymph Galatea, the work explores quiet confidence, reflection, and the moments we spend alone with our thoughts.

Sonia Anton is a Romanian-Australian artist whose passion for painting was shaped from an early age, growing up alongside her mother, a celebrated artist whose work left a lasting impression. Having lived across the world from Australia to Mexico and in different continents, Sonia brings a richness of experience and perspective to every canvas. Surrounded by creativity and self-expression from childhood, she naturally found her own voice through paint and colour. Her work is driven by a deep love of colour, and a more recent fascination with texture, which she explores with growing boldness and confidence. Each piece is an act of genuine self-expression, an invitation to feel rather than simply observe.
