iam: a visual artist
I am a Visual Artist pursuing my passion for creating visual works which both reflect and encourage contemplation of our world.   

I feel privileged to walk on, and create within the incredible beauty of the lands and waters of the Noonuccal, Goenpul and Ngugi peoples. My work aims to capture a sense of the spirit I feel within the ever-changing, cyclical and interconnected nature of Minjerribah/Terrangerri/North Stradbroke Island’s unique environment. The learnings I have undertaken through the generosity of community Elders, cultural mentors and friends also inspires my watercolour and mixed media works.  

My works feature island flora and fauna; land and seascapes of the foreshore; and seasonal changes including the mullet fishing season. I paint and draw predominantly with acrylic, watercolour, ink and pencil on a range of grounds including Arches paper, and canvas or board prepared with watercolour or acrylic gesso. During the Arts Trail I will have a range of different sized works on exhibit and for sale.  

I work from my home studio, and exhibit and teach both young people and adults from within my Bench & Easel Gallery.
