Artwork Description

Within my ‘Magic and Enchantment’ series of works, I sort to rediscover the fairytale essence of a childlike fantasy world. A world of elemental magic and enchanted adventures places where miracles happen and anything is possible.

Perfect for a children’s bedroom or to inspire your own inner child to remember the magic to be found in our experience of the world.

My process for creating this artwork was to lay down a wash of multiple harmonious colours, and wait for the magic to happen on my paper. . I start to see shapes or an energy of elements coming forth and use this to influence and inspire the composition of the artwork.

Artist Bio

I am a visual artist working within the mediums of watercolour, acrylic, and pen. My artworks combine elements of drawing and painting and I take my time to explore the textures and layers of paint on the substrate. By using use emotive, saturated colour, and gradients of light, I aim to create an essence of the divine in my work.

My style is representational and figurative in nature, influenced by themes of gender, identity, sexuality, nature, beauty and the female experience. I desire to empower the viewer and influence their perception of beauty by encouraging them to seek a viewpoint outside of the orthodox social constructs. This narrative is evident in my artworks depicting the reproductive system of the female body and plant kingdom. My artworks of animals are intended to remind us of the character and beauty of all sentient creatures on earth, and how our choices and actions affect all living beings.

Largely self-taught in my style, I formally studied visual arts at Byron Bay Community College and Southern Cross University. My work has been exhibited in a number of shows and my art is held in private collections worldwide.
