West, from Katoomba

I live in Sydney in a harbor-side suburb which provides me with endless subject matter and inspiration. These days I traverse a number of genres‚ including landscape‚ wildlife and aviation art. I've been painting all my life‚ but with the advent of the internet‚ the majority of my clients reside in North America and Europe, numbering over two hundred collectors. My landscape art influences are primarily from the Californian School and the Australian Heidelberg School‚ and perhaps Arthur Streeton more than anyone else. I have won awards for landscape, wildlife and aviation categories.These days my representation is online only, with the closure of so many bricks-and-mortar galleries. I have also introduced a range of more contemporary works, although their style and subject matter clearly have origins in my traditional background.
