Series 4 light and glass Light Globes 1

On one hand this is a classic still life painting, capturing the gentle nature of light passing through light globes on a table, casting soft shadows and throwing tranquil reflections. On the other hand, it's also a story about connection. All these little sources of light are connected by the same thread, just as we are all connected by our shared humanity. There's something beautiful in that lovely tangled line, that enters the frame, then winds around all the elements, inviting the viewer to sit with this little linked community for a minute, considering connection, and illumination.

Hi! I'm an oil painter, and I'm based in Coffs Harbour Australia.

I love painting still life, people and the natural world. My influences change per series, but in general I love the modernists and modern Australian female still life artists in particular. My training was grounded in the discipline of still life and it's probably my enduring love, but I explore other genres regularly.

I loosely group artworks into thematic series. I have exhibited in various galleries across Australia.

The grand concepts I explore across all my series are about joy, and the lovely ephemeral beauty of our lives.
