Tasmanian born, but now based on the Gold Coast, I began practicing art in 1997 and have exhibited extensively around Australia since 2007.
My paintings are mostly done impasto style… thick, lustrous, and wonderfully messy. I spread the oil paint thickly onto the canvas with a palette knife, which gives the paintings a 3D quality, evoking desires to touch and visually scrutinise. On close inspection my paintings appear abstract, heavily textured, containing many different colours, but when viewed from a distance, the human eye naturally blends those colours and forms, and a recognisable image is seen.
I draw my inspiration from the mundane happenings in everyday life. My paintings are often subjects that other have over looked, such as crazy antics of birds as they try and scavenge food from the picnic table, or cupcakes at a family gathering.
