An artist whose nostalgic, story-rich paintings continue to captivate collectors worldwide.

We’re thrilled to share that celebrated New Zealand artist Ross Jones has been featured on the cover of the latest edition of Sotheby’s Property Style Magazine – a beautifully curated publication that explores the intersection of fine art, luxury homes, architecture, and design. With a dedicated readership of discerning homeowners, collectors, and design aficionados, the magazine is known for showcasing exceptional creativity and craftsmanship from around the globe.

Inside this latest issue, Ross is honoured with a double-page spread, offering readers a deeper look into his artistic journey – from his beginnings in digital illustration for major international clients to the richly imaginative oil paintings that now define his practice. The feature delves into Ross’s shift from high-tech to hand-crafted, celebrating the meticulous, analog process that has earned him a loyal following across New Zealand, Australia, North America, Singapore, and beyond.

Set against the quiet charm of his studio overlooking the Hauraki Gulf, Ross shares insight into the inspirations behind his work: from cherished childhood memories in Ōtaki to vintage toys, beloved pets, and timeless moments of New Zealand life. His paintings—often infused with both playful surrealism and striking realism -evoke a powerful sense of narrative and nostalgia.

The article also touches on Ross’s advice for new collectors, offering practical guidance on investing in art, building meaningful relationships with galleries, and buying for both emotional connection and long-term value.
