Seaweed

On the beach in summer in Australia is an open invitation to fossick and become inspired by the colours and shape of quite mystical weeds that wash up. Not only do they create colours to take your breath away, but they also form remarkable shapes that make statements. These often harsh summers make Australians both resilient and humbled by the natural world.

I am an oil painter in love with Australian light and landscapes. Living on Awabakal land, I respect and acknowledge the Traditional Owners of this land. I exhibit in Newcastle, Sydney and regional NSW. The work is gestural and executed with a range of mark making tools to create impasto techniques of the shapes, tones and colours unique to Australia. Often sought for their rich texture and patterned surfaces, many of the works present a rich, varied and bold colour scheme that punch well above their weight.
