My work is deeply connected to place, home, family, and nature—elements that hold my memories and help shape my sense of identity. When connecting to locations, I tend to notice the smallest and finest details in nature and surrounds. By breaking down intricate surroundings and moving closer to individual elements, I like to reveal details that may initially go unnoticed, allowing them to quietly enhance the beauty of the whole.
I am continually awe-inspired by the natural beauty that surrounds me in the Blue Mountains, Australia where I live. I am also bonded to the landscape of the inner New South Wales area in which I was born, Barmedman. My work is a personal response to experiences, observations, and journeys within the Blue Mountains and during my travels across this beautiful land that is Australia.
I work in different mediums such as pastels, oil pastels, oil and acrylic paints, ink, charcoal, pencil, and digital art. I work on large format paper or canvas to small works on paper or human made objects.
