Artist is away — Artwork will have delayed dispatch

Artwork Description

This plein-air painting was painted on the ground in the middle of N'Dhala Gorge, in the East MacDonnell Ranges near Alice Springs. It was on a large sheet that has been cropped and mounted to focus on one part of the scene, one part of the lovely view that surrounded me. It is painted expressively, capturing detail of rocks and trees, as well as colours of the gorge.

Acrylic paint and ink on paper, mounted to board and finished in a wax varnish. The edges of the board are left natural, also finished with a wax varnish.

Artist Bio

Note I am away on holidays from 15 September, so will not be shipping artwork until after my return on 18th October.

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.
