Felicity Palmateer's Artwork

Felicity Palmateer is an Australian professional surfer. Her childhood consisted not only in surfing the south/west coast of Australia, but also in painting and drawing. With the great influence of both her parents, who are also artists, she has developed a natural talent for the Arts.



She gets most of her inspiration from the ocean. Painting in watercolours, the resemblance of waves is found in her artwork. Sea creatures such as whales and turtles are one of her favorite subjects to draw, but the mandalas are what has made her art so famous. 
Flick, as she is also known, first started doodling mandalas when she was in school, as a way to pass the time. Today she can spend hours drawing mandalas, simply as a way of meditating. 


As an artist and surfer, she personalizes her surfboards with her own artwork.
