Artwork Description

‘Sunflower Immersion’ is the first piece in a series exploring sacred geometry in nature. The artwork arose when I became fascinated with the beautifully sequenced patterns in some flower seed heads. I experimented with how to draw the patterns and soon discovered the fibonacci sequence, a mathematical sequence that shows up everywhere in nature including sunflowers.

The sunflower has been burnt into the wood with pyrography on a pallet wood ‘canvas’, built from discarded freight pallets. A light touch of colour has been added to the petals using acrylic paint. The pattern’s spirals draw the observer into the sunflower image, creating calmness, focus and connection.

Artist Bio

Hi, welcome and thanks for dropping in on my bio! I am a mixed media artist based on beautiful Bundjalung Country, Lismore NSW.

My love for all things arts and crafts flourished as a child, yet I somehow lost my connection to these creative expressions of me. Now I am finding my way back and remembering why they grabbed my attention all those years ago! I am remembering that what I love most about making art is being totally immersed in the process and the feeling of connection. Through my art, I explore connection with Self, the Earth and each other. I have always been attracted to the deep wisdom within ancient, earth-centred cultures that operate from a relational worldview...recognising the interconnectedness of everything.

Currently, I repurpose discarded freight pallets to create a base for my artwork, recycling an abundant resource that once lived as trees. Through painting, drawing and pyrography, my pallet artworks come to life inspired by how things relate to each other. I embrace and connect with whatever arises - light and dark, seen and hidden, outer and inner - and I seek to find balance and harmony within them.

The artwork I create is an invitation for you to also find ways to connect, by slowing down, tuning in, listening deeply and embracing what arises. I’m excited to connect with you through art!
