Artwork Description

Collaged prints on paper arranged and mounted onto a stretched canvas that has been painted black.

This artwork combines my love of expressive and abstract painting with that of printmaking. I took inspiration I from the Apollo Bay harbour, so there is a nautical feel to the artwork. The printmaking and collage approach - to create a "visual sentence" was taught by American artist Jane Davies, and was extended here to present the artwork on canvas.

The prints have been mounted securely onto the canvas and finished with painting medium as well as varnish for protection. The sides of the canvas are painted black, so the artwork can be hung as it is or a frame added.

I have been making art for a few years now, and I'm now doing it full-time. I'm loving the artist journey, and am proud to be high on the list of Bluethumb's rising stars. I have a large array of artwork available. I paint a lot, and enjoy exploring watercolour, oil and cold wax medium, acrylic paintings and mixed media as well as printmaking. Some of my work is on paper, others canvas or board. Perhaps you'd like to click on "follow" and hear about new work as it is listed.

I sold more than 100 paintings with Bluethumb in 2025 and was included in Bluethumb's 2024 "Top emerging women artists" curation and "Notable seascape artists of 2024" curation, as well as other curations in 2025 . I take inspiration from the coastal landscape around Victoria’s Great Ocean Road, as well as more diverse landscape from travels across Australia and beyond. I love to paint expressively and sometimes abstractly to capture the feeling, colour and detail of locations. I also delve into still life, abstract portraits, urban landscapes and florals.

I am constantly adding to my art education through many classes, online and in person, and through intensive art experiences , with guidance and mentoring from many fabulous artists.

In February 2025 I retired from a long professional career working in research in the area of family studies.
