Soft afterglow

“Soft Afterglow” captures the quiet moment when the day has ended but its warmth still lingers. A simple weathered house sits gently beneath a pink-washed sky, suspended in that in-between space where light fades and memory begins to glow. The soft blush tones wrap the structure in a sense of calm and tenderness, turning an ordinary building into something deeply personal and reflective.

This piece speaks to the emotional afterglow of place - the feeling you carry with you long after you’ve left, when home becomes less about location and more about memory, comfort, and belonging.

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.
