Nestled

Surrounded by flourishing foliage and dappled evening light, “Nestled” captures the feeling of a home gently tucked away within a thriving tropical garden. Bold botanical forms and vibrant colour create a layered composition that celebrates the beauty of Queensland's subtropical landscapes while evoking a sense of calm, comfort and escape.

The vertical composition makes “Nestled” particularly suited to the end of a hallway, where it naturally draws the eye forward and creates a striking focal point. Whether displayed in an entry, hallway or living space, it invites viewers to pause and imagine the warmth and tranquillity that lies beyond the garden.

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.
