🎨 LET YOUR PURCHASE MATTER. ❤️

Every original artwork represents somebody’s creativity, time and talent.

And when you choose to buy from an Australian artist, you’re doing something rather wonderful.

You’re helping reward the person who made it.

That’s why we believe the way art is sold deserves just as much attention as the artwork itself.

At The East Coast Arts Trail, artists pay just 5% commission when selling through our marketplace, with the freedom to offer buyers a direct purchasing option with no ECAT commission.

Because we believe creators deserve a fair opportunity to keep as much of their earnings as possible.

And buyers deserve the freedom to choose how they support them.

As we wrap up six New Artwork Sundays collections, we’d like to thank every artist who entered and every person who stopped to explore their work.

Your attention matters. Your choices matter. And Australian creativity deserves both.

❤️ MAKE IT PART OF YOUR LIFE.

There’s something special about living with original art.

It’s there when you walk into the room. When friends visit. When the morning light catches it differently.

And over time, it becomes part of the memories you make in that space.

That’s why buying Australian art isn’t simply about decorating.

It’s about choosing something you’ll enjoy having around for years to come.

This New Artwork Sundays, we’re inviting you to explore another collection of original work from talented Australian creators.

Take your time. Find something that feels right for you.

And when you’re ready to buy, remember that The East Coast Arts Trail offers low marketplace commissions and direct artist connections, giving you more choice in how you support the person who made it.

Beautiful art. Real creators. A fairer way to bring them together.

🏡 IMAGINE IT AT HOME. 🎨

That empty wall. The little corner that needs something special. The space you’ve been meaning to make your own.

Now imagine filling it with something created by an Australian artist.

Something original. Something with personality. Something you won’t find in every other home.

That’s the invitation behind today’s New Artwork Sundays.

Explore the paintings, photography, ceramics, sculpture, jewellery and other creative treasures being shared by independent Australian artists.

And if something catches your imagination, visit the creator’s gallery and see what else they’ve made.

We’re proud to offer a fairer way to discover and buy Australian art, helping creators keep more of what they earn.

❤️ Which artwork can you picture in your home?

🎨 BE PART OF THEIR STORY.

Every Australian artist has a story.

And every time someone discovers their work, another chapter begins.

It might start with a follow. A comment. A conversation.

Or perhaps it becomes the moment somebody chooses to bring their artwork home.

That’s why New Artwork Sundays matters.

We’re giving independent Australian creators another opportunity to be seen while helping buyers discover original art through a fairer marketplace.

Just 5% commission on marketplace sales, with the option for buyers to purchase directly from artists without ECAT commission.

Because when an artist makes a sale, we believe they deserve to keep as much of what they’ve earned as possible.

❤️ To every creator who entered today, thank you for sharing your story with us.

And to everyone exploring, whose story will you become part of?

❤️ SOME THINGS JUST CLICK.

You can’t always explain why you love an artwork.

Maybe it reminds you of somewhere you’ve been. Someone you know. A feeling you’ve had.

Or perhaps there’s no explanation at all.

You simply love looking at it.

That’s more than enough.

This New Artwork Sundays, we’re inviting you to explore original Australian art without worrying about what’s fashionable, valuable or popular.

Choose what speaks to you.

And if you discover a creator whose work makes you feel something, take a moment to follow their journey.

Because behind every piece is an Australian artist hoping their work finds the right person.

Could that person be you?

🎨 WHAT’S CAUGHT YOUR EYE?

You weren’t necessarily looking for anything.

But then you saw it.

A splash of colour. A familiar landscape. An unusual shape. Something that made you stop scrolling and take another look.

That’s the wonderful thing about discovering original Australian art. Sometimes the best finds are completely unexpected.

Welcome to another New Artwork Sundays!

We’re celebrating Australian creators across all mediums and inviting you to explore their latest work.

Whether you’re a collector, a first-time buyer or simply someone who enjoys beautiful things, there’s no pressure here.

Just enjoy the art, discover the people behind it and see what takes your fancy.

🎨 CREATORS WE LOVE — DELMA BRUNELLO! ❤️

Some artists have a way of making colour feel like a celebration. Delma Brunello is certainly one of them!

Today we’re celebrating Brisbane-based artist Delma Brunello -professional artist, whose wonderfully imaginative abstracts and botanical creations are bursting with personality.

From the playful shapes of Teen Party to the extraordinary garden of Fantastic Flowers, Delma’s work invites you to explore, smile and discover something new every time you look.

And we love seeing her creativity reaching audiences across different galleries and art platforms!

❤️ A LITTLE REMINDER FOR ART LOVERS…

When you discover an artist you love, take a moment to consider where you purchase their work.

Traditional gallery and marketplace commissions can take 25–50% or more of an artwork’s selling price.

On The East Coast Arts Trail®, we charge just 5% on platform sales, and encourage buyers to purchase directly from artists, where our commission is 0%.

Same talented artist. Same wonderful creativity. A fairer opportunity to earn from their work.

Today, though, the spotlight belongs to Delma!

Please visit Delma Brunello -professional artist give her a follow and enjoy exploring her colourful world.
