Artwork Description

In Wetlands – Earth Magic, I wanted to capture that fleeting moment when sunlight breaks across the landscape and transforms an ordinary wetland into something extraordinary. Vibrant lime greens and golden yellows dance across the marsh, while earthy browns and soft blue skies create a sense of depth and tranquillity. My loose brushwork, layered textures, and expressive mark-making suggest grasses swaying in the breeze, shallow waterways glistening in the light, and the constant movement of life within this rich ecosystem.

What I love most about wetlands is their energy and abundance. The scattered birds soaring overhead and resting amongst the reeds bring a feeling of freedom and vitality, while the luminous colours celebrate the beauty of nature at its most alive. For me, this work is about the magic that exists in these wild places—the connection between earth, water, sky, and the creatures that call it home. It is a joyful, uplifting piece that invites the viewer to pause and appreciate the wonder hidden within the landscape.

The canvas is an original piece and comes with d rings and wire ready to hang. The piece is UNFRAMED. Sides are painted in a crisp white to set off the artwork. The work is created in acrylic paint. All work has been sealed and varnished for protection

THE BLOCK ARTIST - 2024 and 2025

I was absolutely thrilled that two of my works were again selected to feature in this year’s series of THE BLOCK in Daylesford 2025 and last year in THE BLOCK Phillip Island 2024! It is an incredible honour to be part of such a well-loved show, and I can’t begin to express how exciting it was to see my art displayed every night during contestant interviews.

I am an abstract artist and I find incredible inspiration from the rocks and sea around Phillip Island. I am very drawn to the changing colours of the sea and the beautiful colours of the red rocks and natural diversity of the island which often tend to end up being the main subjects for my art. I have a real passion for colour and enjoy experimenting with the use of different colour combinations to create my work.

My works are totally intuitive and I pour all my energy, passion and emotion into each unique piece I create. My works are mainly acrylic with some mixed media of charcoal and pastel and I adore painting on big canvases.

My artistic Journey originally saw me working with oils creating contemporary seascapes but as my art evolved I found myself wanting to really let go and create from within. I love being able to create from something as simple as a mark on paper or a thought and let the canvas tell me what it wants.

Lately I’ve found myself going a bit wild with my brushstrokes as the crazy madness of creating takes over. My passion is colour and I love experimenting with different colour palettes which keeps my works interesting and exciting. I truely am on a journey of exploration with my work.
