Go on. I dare you!

On a hot afternoon, I saw this bobtail lizard crossing our paddock. He was heading towards the bush. It seemed that even he was eager to get out of the sun! While I was taking his picture, he tried to scare me with his mouth open, showing me his blue tongue. A great photo opportunity!

Hi there. My name is Emily.

I love nature! It is the basis of my education, the centre of my volunteer work and now the inspiration of my art.

Living in the Perth Hills, I am constantly provided with photo opportunities of the wildlife that visit us. For the last four years, I have been learning my craft, trying different media and styles. My favourites are coloured pencil, pastels and watercolour in a fairly detailed style.

Prompted by a friend I entered the Kelmscott and Gosnells Art Shows where my pieces have won 'Best in Show' and their individual classes. Encouraged by these achievements I hope this is a start of an exciting art career.
