Artwork Description

Our native orchids in Australia are simply stunning. A bush walk in spring is made extra special if you've managed to spot a few different varieties along the edges of the trail. The spider orchids are my personal favourites, incredibly delicate and intricate and when tucked amongst other wildflowers are literally as pretty as a picture!!!! Caladenia Intuta ( an endangered spider orchid found on Yorke Peninsula in South Australia ) is depicted here with the gorgeous orange and pink pea flower and detailed in gold leaf.
Varnished and mounted in a recycled timber frame, ' A Rare Beauty ' is ready to hang straight on your wall.

Artist Bio

I live in the picturesque Adelaide Hills where I paint and teach from my home studio, ' The Dairy Studio/Gallery '.
I have undergone lessons with Adelaide artists Viv Newcombe and Sylvia Preston.
Although the journey to where I am now has been both rewarding and frustrating, I have slowly built up my skills and confidence to the point where I exhibit and sell my work. I love to paint in watercolours and acrylics and love to experiment with texture and additional materials to create mixed media artworks. My inspiration is drawn from the wonders of creation and total contentment comes whilst being absorbed in the process of creating new works.
I have exhibited my work throughout Adelaide and regional South Australia and held a solo exhibition in 2010 at 'Gallery M' and in 2018 at my home studio. I have also exhibited in the very popular South Australian SALA Festival on many occasions.
I also enjoy being a member of the ' Willunga Arts Collective ' who exhibit in The Glass Studio in rural Willunga SA.
