I have travelled and explored many places, near and far during my life but there are some that hold a special significance and their echo’s shape the way I understand and appreciate the world around me.
Now I find myself exploring these connections in my art, inspired by memories, emotions and the experiences that have enriched my life, places where I feel “at home” and connected at a deeper level …. a passion for gardens, those I have owned, created and visited; the coastline of the Shoalhaven, its beaches and mangroves, where I find peace and renewal and more recently the incredible Spirit of India and the art of Japanese paper making ……
Central to my artistic process is the layering of collage, texture, drawing and colour to create expressive mixed media paintings with depth and story.
I aim to capture the intangible qualities - the ‘echoes of place’ and invite you to travel with me on a journey to discover your own connections and the feelings of belonging and resilience these connections inspire.
