His practice has evolved from compositions inspired by patterns in nature to a more intuitive process of layering and removing paint and pigment, allowing each work to develop organically. Drawn to the physical qualities of paint, Besley explores light, movement and space through richly layered surfaces. He has held numerous solo exhibitions in Melbourne, including at fortyfivedownstairs and Chapman \u0026amp; Bailey.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eShipping is not included in the online artwork purchase price.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eArtworks in the stockroom can be collected from the gallery at 45 Flinders Lane, Melbourne VIC 3000 within one business day of purchase.
