This colourful vibrant painting was created with quality pinnata alcohol inks on Yupo (polypropylene). The colours of magenta, soft purples and rainforest green, overlaid with teal and rich gold notes have been applied over many layers to provide depth and multi-tonal dimensions. Although unplanned as these are my favourite colours, they In fact acknowledge the new Very Peri Pantone colour of 2022! Very on trend.
This painting has been protected with multi coats of UV protective varnish and is sold in a white timber frame, white mat, under glass and ready to hang. It will be a delightful painting to brighten any space.

Packaging: This painting will leave my studio very securely wrapped in multiple layers of bubblewrap and double boxed with sturdy cardboard to ensure a safe journey.

“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.
