I have been painting for most of my life, and professionally painting for the the last 15 years. My influences are the natural worlds of the bush, ocean and coast lines where I spent a great deal of my life surfing, camping and exploring. I have always been attracted to the ocean, especially the movement of water and have spent many years learning to lay down the transparency and energy of water via the brush and various mediums of paint. I would say my works are of the realism side and can vary from seascapes, skies , headlands and wave formations to storms , night and cosmos scapes to surreal scenes that catch a more deeper or quirky thought line. I invite you to view my artworks .
