Born in Adelaide and now based in Queensland, I’m an Australian artist creating expressive figurative and nature-inspired paintings. My work explores feeling, movement and the way colour shapes atmosphere.

After many years in the health and social services sector, painting became a way to restore balance and reconnect with creativity. It has since grown into my full-time practice, with a focus on contemporary pieces that blend intuitive colour work, layered texture and emotive storytelling.

My current direction includes the Blooming Veil series and larger portrait-style bird pieces. These works use acrylic and mixed media, with oils used in selected projects. The pieces listed here on Bluethumb are earlier works that remain available as unique one-off originals.
