Sinuous sunshine state

My background is in urban design and landscape architecture in south-east Queensland. I wanted to capture what I love about the vibrant place I live, from the coastal homes overlooking the beaches to the hinterland mountain homes with views over the pines and forests.

I’m lucky to live in a home with mountain views that is also not far from the beach. It’s best of both worlds.

In this captivating painting, the essence of Queensland's diverse landscapes is vividly captured. From the tranquil coastal shores to the majestic hinterland mountains, the viewer is transported on a visual journey through the region's breathtaking scenery. The sinuous forms of the hills create a sense of movement and depth, inviting exploration into the heart of Queensland's natural beauty.

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.
