Artwork Description

This now decayed front doorway would 'once upon a time' have been a stunning entrance to a lovely family home set in an idyllic location right on the beach.
On the beautiful Greek Island of Amorgos this doorway opened straight onto the beach, on a quiet and peaceful bay. We passed this wonderful photo opportunity on a stroll around the bay before we enjoyed a quiet swim.
Now rotting and crumbling and becoming overrun with vegetation, the water and sky are visible through the cracks and decay.
Painted on hot pressed watercolour paper, 'Once Upon a Time' is framed with a double matt and rustic timber frame and is ready to hang straight on your wall.

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.
