Born in Australia, I have spent most of my life in Sydney and am currently based in Miranda in the Sutherland Shire. I have been creating art since early childhood, beginning at around the age of four. My primary mediums have traditionally been ballpoint pen and high-quality pencils, though in recent years I have expanded my practice to include pastels and paint.
I hold a Bachelor of Visual Arts, where I focused primarily on drawing and painting. In addition, I have undertaken studies in forensic linguistics, an academic field that has deepened my understanding of language, meaning, and interpretation. While I have benefited from formal education, much of my artistic development has been self-directed, allowing me to cultivate a distinct and personal visual language.
My current focus is on creating work that resonates with a broader audience while remaining true to my artistic voice. This voice is grounded in immersion—producing pieces that engage viewers both from a distance and at close range, and that maintain visual impact across varying lighting conditions. Central to my practice is the idea of catharsis, expressed through line work and subject matter. My background in forensic linguistics informs this process, sharpening my sensitivity to symbolism, subtext, and the ways meaning can be constructed, concealed, or revealed within an image. While I strive for consistency in voice, I also embrace experimentation, often incorporating mixed media—combining ink, paint, pencil, and pastel within a single work. This shift has become increasingly important as I move toward larger formats and canvas-based work.
My creative process typically explores abstraction as a way of expressing movement, memory, and psychological experience. Rather than depicting recognizable subjects, I build compositions through intersecting planes, fractured forms, and layered gestures that suggest transformation rather than description.
Influenced by Cubism, Modernism, and Futurism, I use structure and fragmentation to examine how perception shifts over time. The paintings are intuitive yet carefully constructed, balancing geometric order with spontaneous mark-making. Colour, rhythm, and repeated forms create visual tension, inviting viewers to discover their own associations within the work.
Each painting develops through multiple revisions, allowing forms to emerge, dissolve, and reappear. The finished image becomes a record of both conscious design and instinctive decision-making.
Looking ahead, I aim to create work that connects with a wider audience—pieces that are both impactful and relatable, and that can be exhibited and sold while maintaining the integrity of my artistic vision.
