My work has been highly influenced by the world of commercial art and graphic design. This translates to my art in many ways. My still life paintings are careful composition full of allegories, which capture a moment in time where all represented items are meaningful beyond the composition.

"An Elephant on Five Kangaroos " is one in a series of still life paintings that feature a piece of origami, and other everyday objects. This painting features a paper elephant balancing on an Australian gold coin, like a circus performer. This is a statement on our inflationary economy, with many living on over extended credit cards and mortgages.
