I am inspired by colour, beauty and form found in nature.  My paintings engage the viewers’ imagination through my use of colour, mark making, texture and perspective.  These allow me to explore something beyond the parameters of the composition to the ethereal landscape.

I have studied art at the Freedom School (David Giles), with Jane McKay and at TAFE (Art & Design) in Perth, Western Australia.

I have lectured in Art and Sandplay Therapy at Sophia College and have conducted art workshops in Perth and the regional areas of Western Australia.

Since 2013, I have exhibited with the Abstract Angels at galleries in Perth and Fremantle.  The group combines their art with fundraising for charities in Perth.
