I am an artist currently living in Adelaide which is my original home city. Previously i lived in Sydney for 6 years . I have had a passion for art and creativity  from an early age and continued to make it part of my life up until today . My mother was a painter also so this passion is in the genes

I originally was trained in traditional watercolour  by some excellent artists and teachers.

I then explored other genres including abstract work , sculpture , and installation works

I have exhibited and sold works in a number galleries and art shows throughout  the country

Where do you get your inspiration from when you paint?

Inspiration comes from my first brush strokes on the paper then the process evolves

The most important part of my painting for me is to have a very bright palette of colour in front of me

I try to stay with primary colours and mix bright and uplifting paint

What are the five words that people who know you would use to describe you?
