Stories of who has my hand-painted work...
Read some of the stories. Perhaps I am a romantic at heart?
Romantic getaway
This one is having on my wall. I so enjoyed painting this one and imagine it has a cosy fire and luxurious rustic feel inside, with a window to the mountains. A great weekend escape in the countryside.
Kooka - A4 Original artwork in Charcoal
Gifted to my sister-in-law who is an amazing animal whisperer. This is one of the beautiful kookaburras who visit her regularly. Would you believe me if I told you they wear these hats in exchange for a feed?
Kilcunda beach, Victoria - Original A4 in Acrylic
This artwork flew across the Tasman to Aotearoa, NZ
Unrelenting (watercolour on board)
This painting was sold at the Victorian Artist Society 9x5 exhibition
Waves crashing don’t cease for humans. No matter what’s happening, they continue to crash in. Nature and determination. The consistent sound lulls and relaxes, can you imagine it now? This beach is from my imagination, from time I’ve spent at the beach watching the shadows and movement of the waves. I wanted to try different techniques with watercolour, to test blooms, tone and a wax surface.

Banksia by any other name would still smell as sweet
After a friend sought to commission a painting from me, she saw this one and fell in love with it. Given her love for nature, permaculture and sustainability - I’m chuffed that she chose my art
The road home
Commuter time sunrise
This artwork hung at the Maroondah 30th Mayoral Exhibition and got a red dot 🔴 It was lovely to see it hung with other artists work and I hope it is loved by the person who chose it.
I catch the train regularly, less carbon emissions, more relaxing start to my morning (compared to fighting commuter traffic). This particular morning, the sun was so far north it rose amongst the fog straight down the line. With the commuter in her red coat, the scene jumped out at me - beauty in the every day.
