Artist Bio

I'm a Deaf artist, born in and living back in Melbourne after a number of years in Adelaide, South Australia. I have been practicing my arts for 18 years and exhibiting for the last decade and most recently as an international artist in Europe.

I work with watercolour, ink, gouache and mixed media to communicate my stories, transcribing perceptions of the world today and way back many thousands of years ago. Some of my works also focus on preserving history of places around local areas and afar, often on request of others and those works convey in my style of the places I paint. Sometimes, for a lighthearted comment, I paint a volkswagen adventure or doggy adventure to entertain and bring a smile to people's faces.

My studio is open for visits, so contact me to organise a studio visit. My studio is located 2 hours outside of Melbourne, but I am able to have studio visits in the city during the week in business hours between 10 am and 5 pm, and I require at least 24 hours notice on city visits.

I am starting to move towards working with acrylic and oils on abstract and semi-abstracts as well as imagery with evolved ideas and 2019 will bring new works that sees evolution in my works.
