My floral abstract watercolour works explore the connection between nature and the inner self. Rather than painting flowers as they are seen, I paint how they are felt, soft, fluid, and intuitive.
I’m drawn to organic forms and earthy, lighter tones, allowing water and pigment to move freely. This balance between control and surrender reflects my spiritual journey, trusting the process and embracing what naturally unfolds.
Through these pieces, I invite viewers to slow down and connect with the quiet beauty of colour, shape, and flow.
These floral abstract works are painted predominantly in watercolour, layered with pencil, graphite, and ink to add depth and movement. Each piece is professionally hand-framed by local framer Oliver and Co in Victoria.

Artist Statement:
My work is strongly influenced by the experience of overcoming emotional struggles
through mindfulness and spirituality. In my practice, I explore emotional states
through acrylics, oils, watercolours, gouache and charcoal. My work often portrays
landscapes and floral arrangements depending on the mood I intend to convey, as well as
exploring abstract shapes, and mark-making as creative expression.
