Artwork Description

The plight of those driven from their homeland through war, hunger, persecution is to become the flotsam and jetsam of this world

Artist Bio

My work is figurative and much has been based on travels (Spain, Malaysia, Cuba). Our shared humanity is important in my work, and this is reflected in the “Off the Track” paintings, “The Lovers” etchings, drawings and paintings, an autobiographical series “You shall tell your Child”, and “The Voyage”.

Solo exhibitions include ‘Better late than never’ (Cato Gallery, November 1998), ‘Life Class’ (Axiom Gallery, February 2001), ‘Peeling the Spanish Onion’ (Ibertours in July 2002) and Fishy Bizniz (Artholes, June 2005), Off the track (Artholes, July, 2006) and Asturias y Australia (BBVA exhibition space, Oviedo, Spain, June 2007), ‘And you shall tell your Child’ (The Fire Station, July 2013), ‘The Voyage’, (Glen Eira Council Gallery, July 2017), ‘A landscape of memories’ (Glen Eira Council Gallery, September 2019) and ‘There is a place for everyone’, (Glen Eira Council Gallery, October 2022).
