Artwork Description

This painting formed part of my solo exhibition that celebrated the magnificent mundane. It is a very familiar spot on the Warrnambool foreshore, right next to the Surf Lifesaving Club tower and that foreshore path is always busy with beachgoers, walkers, dogs, prams and bicycles. Its an institution in coastal life and I think the light, bright beach vibes would lift any room.

My ambition is always seeking to capture beauty in the everyday. Many paintings share a strong connection to the environment and our place within it.
At the heart of everything is the search for light that transforms the ordinary into something else.
I moved to Warrnambool, on Victoria’s south west, after almost three decades as a newspaper journalist.
In 2020, I completed a Visual Arts Cert IV course at South West TAFE.
I primarily paint with oils in my home studio in a figurative and realism style; influenced by artists whose art features a strong storytelling element such as American, Edward Hopper.
In 2025 I held my first solo exhibition in Warrnambool called The Extraordinary Ordinary, celebrating how every day scenes can be incredibly beautiful, when viewed in a certain light.
I have been a finalist in various well known Australian art prizes, including the Kennedy Prize, John Villiers Outback Art Prize and ANL Maritime Art Award and Exhibition.
