Soft pastels are a medium that straddles the line between painting and drawing. In the style that I create with soft pastels, I consider it to be painting, as I mainly use layers of pigment to create shape, colour and value with less use of marks and lines.

I am proud to be an Associate Artist of Unison Colour and promote the wonderful medium of soft pastels. Soft pastels are an often misunderstood and underappreciated creative medium. I love applying pigment directly to a surface, it reminds me of all the work of my people that I see when I am out on Gamilaraay lands. It links me to the past, inspires me in the present and allows me share stories with others that will survive into the future through my art.
