I have always drawn and painted, it's in my blood. I put myself through Griffith university and completed my Bachelor of Visual Arts in fine art and an Honours year after that completed in 1996. Since then I have had solo exhibitions and group exhibitions of my work, much of it conceptual in the early years. I have a great love of nature and science which has come through in my work. I love travel and have recently travelled to exotic countries like Egypt, Morocco, Turkey, Spain, Greece, Ireland and Scotland so my work has been inspired by the spiritual and cultural aspects of these wonderful places.
