Sheree Dohnt
​
Sheree Dohnt (b. 1990), is an established Artist residing in Fremantle, Western Australia.
In 2011, Dohnt graduated from the University of Wollongong with a Bachelor of Creative Arts (Visual Arts). Dohnt approaches the possibilities of portraiture with a process driven art practice, and as a negotiation between artist, subject, medium and viewer, to encapsulate the themes of identity, parenthood and womanhood.
Dohnt’s art practice is rooted in connection; preferring to paint from life, with the aim of conveying a sense of intimacy and insight into each individual.
In 2023, Dohnt was a finalist in the Collie Art Prize, City of Rockingham Art Prize, and Winner of the Harvey Art Prize. In 2024, Dohnt opened her first public gallery and studio in Bunbury, WA, where she undertook 12 months completing portrait commissions for clients across Australia.
Dohnt has been a member of the Watercolour Society of Western Australia since 2021
