Hi and welcome!
I am a Brisbane based acrylic artist who grew up immersed in rural life on properties in South Australia and later in South-West Queensland. I was inspired to draw and paint from an early age by my mother who was a talented landscape artist. Some of my earliest art related memories were filling pages and pages with detailed realistic pencil drawings of people and horses. While the subject matter hasn't changed much, these days my paintings are much more intuitive and constantly evolving. It has been a long journey in learning to let go of controlling the creative process. I love the freedom of not having a plan and letting the artwork create its own path as I reach to interpret and express something that lies beyond the physical elements we see with our eyes.
