Hi there! I am a landscape artist based in Orange, NSW.
Having moved to Orange a few years ago, my young family and I enjoy exploring the Central West which has inspired my more recent acrylic artworks.
Although my paintings are based on places visited, I am led by the painting process, enjoying finely layering colours and discovering as new details emerge.
“When visiting these places, there is often a sense of being time-limited – a weekend getaway, a short bush walk, or needing to take children home. I am interested in capturing these ‘quick escapes’ on the canvas for longer-term enjoyment and reflection.
While there is beauty in the vastness of Australian landscapes, my current body of work is intentionally focussed and smaller in size. I want to create something that is somewhat understated, that draws you in further. Paintings that complement the smaller spaces – an image you can step into without getting lost in a big, wide landscape.”
