This painting is part of a series called the 'Way to Macedon'. The Macedon Ranges are about 2 hours north of Melbourne in Victoria, Australia.

My painting is influenced by Mid-Century Modernism and the work of Paul Klee.

My work explores the simplification and interpretation of various forms predominately being the natural environment. With an emphasis on colour, pattern and light the painted works explore the notion of a fusion between representation and abstraction.

I'm interested in the way colour influence our emotions and internal states. There is a therapeutic aspect to art making which is just as important as the act of looking at art.
