About the Artist

A Brief History

Summer Aldis (b.1998) is an early-career Australian artist. After various attempts at university, ranging across science, business, art, and primary education- she finally decided to defer her studies in 2021 to give her lifelong passion for art a chance as a career path. In June of 2021, she won the Lethbridge Small Scale Art Award, effectively affirming her professional pivot towards the fine arts. Self-taught, she focuses on portrait and figurative work captured with graphite to explore themes of human connection and mental health.
