As an Australian contemporary artist I have always enjoyed creativity and art.
From 2010 I commenced enrolling in short courses including the Central School of Art, Adelaide, South Australia to help take my skills 'to the next level'.
Realising my potential I then started taking my art practices seriously in 2015 exhibiting my work in both SALA (South Australian Living Artist) festivals and as a member of PASA (Pastel Artists of South Australia) in local galleries and venues.
I'm now selling my work in a local cafe with wonderful success, along with including some pieces for sale via on-line galleries.
I was born in Corryong (Victoria) and grew up in various country towns throughout North East Victoria. As an adult I've lived in, Benalla VIC, Albury NSW, Darwin NT and now in the 'City of Churches' Adelaide SA nestled between the hills and sea, surrounded by beautiful landscapes, full of colour and life providing endless inspiration.
I work mainly with acrylic with some mixed media and also pastel or charcoal recreating ideas into beautiful visual representations.
I love feeling challenged as I paint with it's unpredictability prompting me to continually learn and explore whilst on each painting journey.
My work ranges from abstracted nature, still life and portraits that I strive to inject full of colour, emotion and freedom.
Thank you for reading my biography.
I hope my artwork sparks joy or an emotion in you to invest in 'that special piece'.
Have been with gallery247 for 6 years, both free and now paid. Wonderful on line platform for artists which has made my work easy to find and i don't need to worry about setting up my own website; they even forwarded a message from a community college i volunteered for a few years ago, for an art tutor.

I have recently become a member of Gallery 247 as an artist, and am so impressed. Communication was quick and very personable. The website seems very user friendly. With the couple of questions I emailed I was looked after with a phone call and very kindly and professionally looked after. Highly recommend.
