I am an artist living in the hills of Western Australia. I grew up in England with a passion for creating art and went on to study illustration through a graphic design degree.
I have been continuously creating for many years and now work as a full time artist.
For the last few years I have concentrated on painting, enjoying the process of taking the landscape into the realm of an imaginary space.
Recently I have been inspired by the landscape surrounding me in the hills of Western Australia, creating a space with the feeling and textures familiar to me. I enjoy playing with combinations of colour, space and textures, to create atmosphere and emotion. Some of my work is more playful and slightly surreal, I enjoy the freedom of possibility.
The painting evolves with constant re-evaluation, editing and layering as an intrinsic part of the process. For me it is very important that I embark on each adventure without knowing the destination, to keep the fun and excitement of the journey fresh, and experience the thrill of a new discovery.
I want my work to feel like a moment where the viewer can quietly pause, and experience a snapshot of joyful wonder.
Please enjoy the paintings and let your walls smile!
