My artwork is about what I see, feel and experience and engages with the built or natural environment. An abstract expressionist approach informs my way of working quickly to capture a sense of place and time. I have been guided in my making by a life time immersed in colour, light, shape and form through working as an architect and designer.

The long tidal zone expanses of Peregian Beach reveal an ever changing topography and are mirrored in this emotionally charged coastal abstract series. Blue hues, dream-like and surreal, suggest notions of calmness and serenity, beguiling the viewer from the increasing storm season ‘events’ and consequent beach destruction.

Focusing on the visual qualities of the shoreline and the living oceans, saturated vibrant colours and deliberate brush strokes create compelling visual impressions. Impressions that move the viewer to respect the environment and its precious natural resources and promote an understanding of the challenges of climate change.
