Artist based in Newcastle, New South Wales, working primarily in oil and acrylic paint.
Painting across subjects of still life, portraiture and landscape.
I studied Fine Art at Tafe and then University obtaining a Bachelor of Fine Art and continuing on to complete a Masters in Education to qualify as a secondary school Visual Art teacher.
My interest in art was sparked at Rudolf Steiner school as a primary student and grew from there.
I’ve had many occupations that took me away from creating but have returned to art making and have never been happier.
I love the physicality of paint and seeing it’s qualities expressed on a surface in a painterly manner often with visible brushstrokes and a varied colour palette.
