Prickly Paradise

Prickly Paradise celebrates the unique beauty of cacti in a stylised, whimsical manner. A bold and cheerful colour palette using bright blues, sunny hello, fiery reds and deep green come together in a harmonious but energetic composition. The overall effect is of exuberance and the painting captures the unexpected beauty of these resilient plants.

I love variety in my art and move between abstract style using mixed media., and realism. I am inspired by scenes and experiences, and I endeavour to capture the essence and movement. I enjoy colour and variety in my artwork. My painting “Between the Flags” won the Handlers Prize at the Thirroul Seaside Art Festival. “Banksia Served Three Ways” was selected as a 2022 finalist in the Hornsby Art Prize, and my still life “Town and Country” as a finalist at Bowral Art Gallery. “Inside Out” was hung as a finalist in the Hunters Hill Art Prize. I am a member of the Illawarra Art Society and participate in their regular exhibitions.
