Artwork Description

“Murrumba Memories” captures the feeling of a place held gently in the heart long after you’ve left it. Under a wide, blush-tinted sky, the land stretches open and unhurried, carrying the quiet rhythm of paddocks, fences, and a homestead that has stood through seasons of change.

Fine white linework traces the structures and contours like memory itself - not loud or fixed, but softly persistent. These drawn marks suggest the way we map meaningful places in our minds: the slope of the ground, the shelter of a roofline, the space where sky feels bigger than anywhere else.

Named after ‘Murrumba’, meaning “good place,” the work reflects on the deep comfort of belonging - to land, to history, to moments that shape us. It is both a real landscape and an emotional one, where past and present meet in warm evening light.

Artist Bio

My paintings are vibrant, bold and eye-catching. I love bright colours that evoke a feeling of joy and delight!

I paint imaginative urban-themed environments, landscapes, gardens, wilderness, mountains and character houses.

The palettes of my paintings are consistently strikingly vivid that bring energy and life to my harmonious compositions.

My work leans towards an abstract stylisation with simplified shapes and block colours, but this is balanced with intricate details and patterns. I like to think of it as a maximalist-minimalist style.

Each piece focuses on a balance between the foreground and background which guides the viewer through the paintings.

My background is in landscape architecture and urban design. My passion for my place making career is an influence on my work. I focus on creating an aspirational “sense of place” and utopic vision, mostly set around my home in the Moreton Bay region in South-East Queensland.
