About

Benitta has been a full-time artist since 2011. While she had always created and sold artworks, it was after losing her home and all her possessions in the devastating Queensland floods of 2011 that she took the leap to pursue her art career full-time, leaving behind years of work in events/ communication roles. Her journey has been marked by resilience, as she had to start over again in 2022 after losing a significant amount of artwork and supplies to another flood. Despite these challenges, her passion for art has only grown stronger.

As a versatile artist, Benitta creates captivating works across multiple mediums, including pastels, oils, and digital vector drawings.

She specialises in creating stunning, lifelike portraits and figurative works in pastels and oils. With a deep appreciation for the human form and a masterful understanding of colour and composition, Benitta has become known for her ability to capture the unique personality and essence of her subjects.

In digital design, Benitta is an accomplished illustrator and designer, bringing her distinctive style to a wide range of projects. From creating mascots and illustrations for schools to designing repeat patterns for textiles, her creativity knows no bounds.

Benitta's diverse skill set also includes freelancing as a set designer and illustrator for stage productions. For over a decade, she has worked with Pen2Stage, a boutique creative production company, designing sets and characters for popular children’s shows such as Jungle Book Jive, Nickelodeon’s Paw Patrol, Shimmer and Shine, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, and Activision’s Skylanders. Her work has reached audiences worldwide, including in Singapore, the Philippines, India, China, and Dubai.

Benitta’s work brings joy and creativity to all who encounter it, with each piece carrying her signature style and artistic flair.
