I have been a maker for as long as I can remember and painting is my passion. Nature and colour provide the greatest amount of inspiration and I hope that my artwork uplifts viewers and provides collectors with a lifetime of joy.

I work fulltime as a feltmaker and textile artist. Minjerribah is a place of infinite inspiration for me. It is where I come to recharge, get some soul food, commune deeply, and create.

“The more interesting the work the more disreputable it is.

Defaming reality is the best way of achieving grandeur of delusion.”

My lamps are created from my love of textiles that I have gathered from across the globe - ikats, indigo, barkcloth, ecodyes, European linens or just plain funky. My joy comes from teaming these with amazing bases.

There’s nothing quite like the feeling of clay. The pieces emerging from these raw source materials and the alchemy of glazing and firing combine in a never-ending learning journey of shapes, textures and hues!

I am a contemporary jeweller and metalsmith. I create individually handcrafted pieces influenced by the changing colours, textures, light and sounds of the place where I live.

I was raised on Straddie and have a deep love of its beauty. Our first home at Point Lookout was a fibro cottage overlooking Main Beach, it was beautiful watching the storms come up from the South and I love painting stormy seascapes.

On most days when at home you’ll find me at the wheel, throwing cups, mugs, bowls & dishes, or handbuilding with a variety of clays. I enjoy incorporating delicately beautiful Japanese underglaze transfers or experimenting with different glaze colours & techniques.

I am a painter. I am a self-taught artist of over 40 years’ experience who has resided on Minjerribah for 47 years.

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

Sculpture by artist Michael Bullock

Drawing from my connection to the natural environment, my creative process for textile design begins with the observation of patterns in the world around us—drawing inspiration from the ever-changing canvas of sand and sea, whether it's the sway of leaves in the trees or the intricate textures of coral reefs.
