Mountain Run-off

Kunanyi (Mount Wellington) looms permanently over everyday life in Hobart; a huge, imposing constant throughout history. I wake to its changing colours every day, and often feel its light and shadows reflecting my mood, and perhaps that of the entire city. Energy, water and weatherseem to filter down through the foothills of the mountain into our urban lives.
This painting would look beautiful in a neutral coloured room, where the soft pink tones and the natural colours of the nountain columns can really shine.

I am a graphic designer by trade but painting is where my heart lies. I like to bring some of my design skills to my composition, and love exploring the contrast of the abstract and the real. I have particular interest in line and how it can intersect a landscape or background in interesting ways.
Many of my paintings are inspired by walks I have done in Tasmania - the Overland Track, Walls of Jerusalem and the Three Capes Track to name a few. We have incredible wilderness areas in Tasmania, and I love representing them on canvas.
My sunlit studio in Battery Point, Hobart is my happy place, and that is where you will find me in my spare time. Visitors welcome.
