Heading 6

I am drawn to the work of the Dutch and other European masters with their dark backgrounds and intricate details that seem to have new elements each time I look. I often use these classic compositions to inform my work, particularly with still life and florals. I add my own dimensions through the use of everyday found objects such as tin cans and often use Australian native plants and flowers. 

​

My work is an expression of my thoughts about issues close to my heart. I like to include some form of reflective surface such as tin, glass or light to nudge the viewer to reflect on the elements and ultimately draw together the interwoven stories. I am often not explicit with these stories. They are there in the background and viewers can choose if, and how much they would like to know, I am always happy to share if asked. 

​

I have been involved in making art throughout my life in some form. I have completed several courses, most recently "A Year of Painting" with the Byron School of Art. In 2021, I won the still life/landscape category in the Australian Art Lovers Annual Awards.
