Esther Erlich is a Melbourne-based Australian artist who has been exhibiting since 1985. She is best know for her gritty style of portraiture which has won her the prestigious Doug Moran National Portraiture Prize and finalist positions in the Archibald Prize multiple times.
Erlich's iconic style is raw, vital and spontaneous, yet also displays the skill and gloss of a well-seasoned artist. It is the brilliant combination of striking, even haunting portrait-like features with the light, grace and somewhat abstract fluidity of her more decorative style that makes her work so inspiring.
