Having lived on the Gold Coast, Australia for most of my life, my love for art started at a very young age. Having been a Primary School teacher for 28 years, I became a Primary Art Teacher in July 2019 where I have been able to share my love and knowledge of art with my students.
My art depicts my love of organic shapes and repetition of pattern and colour. I have influences of flora and fauna that surrounds me as well as the symbols that have personal meaning. I like to experiment with acrylics, mixed media, pen, watercolours and printmaking.
As an intuitive artist, my art rarely starts with a clear idea of what I will create, rather I begin with a medium and colour scheme and let my creative juices lead me down the imaginative garden path.
I like to layer my work to create texture and spark conversation. I believe in letting go when creating my art, allowing freedom to come into play through my works.
