Oil and mixed media painter from Melbourne, Australia. Interests are portraiture and still life.

After two decades as a successful calligrapher and lettering artist, my work is now focused around painting, mainly in oils and mixed media.

I enjoy exploring the different pace this brings to my work. In my painting I am particularly drawn to the quality of line in exploring the concept of fragility - both mine and that of my subject. Words and their meanings and how I relate to them are a continuing source of inspiration.
