​

Originally from Melbourne, I moved to Tasmania 10 years ago to take up a residency at the Salamanca Art Centre in Hobart. This opportunity gave me an exciting chance to explore new landscapes and possibilities.  As a regular hiker,  I take inspiration from remote areas in Tasmania, exploring the majestic and yet vulnerable landscapes. Through the making of art, my relationship with nature grows and deepens.  The magic of nature offers an encounter with both lyrical beauty and an unpredictable powerful force. I love the mosaic of colours found in the alpine areas: the bright yet delicate  flowers set against the deep umbers and indigos of the heath and distant mountains.

​

​Each artwork is created to bring joy and admiration for years to come. They are statement pieces that are painted with care and a deep love of the arts.
