Clear Skies Over The Outback

The vast Golden Outback of Western Australia is a scenic drawcard for tourists and artists alike, and is the inspiration for this rich artwork. Flowing acrylic paints blend effortlessly across the canvas, guided by a lush sable brush to narrate the artist’s aerial interpretation. Warm colours of burnt sienna, Australian reds, ochre and raw umbers depict the landscape, subtle greens and yellows are suggestive of sparse tree canopies.

“While I have done many things in life so far, studying, working and travelling extensively, I truly think I was born to paint! I get great joy from creating and more so when my art is appreciated and sought by viewers and collectors. I am so fortunate to live and create in the World Heritage Listed Area of The Blue Mountains, and take most of my inspirations from its natural environs and my own sprawling Studio gardens,

I enjoy being an active member of the vibrant Blue Mountains arts community. I volunteer at my local art gallery and enjoy giving back to the arts community in that way. I have run art classes for 10 years and have been requested by art societies to provide workshops, demonstrations and to judge their exhibitions. I have also curated a number of Public Gallery and Art Society Exhibitions.
