My Little Posy

Hands can tell many stories. Stories of hope, pain, and secrets. This artwork leads the viewer into their own interpretation of the hands holding the small posy of daisies. The hint of past centuries' style takes me to scenes from Pride and Prejudice or perhaps Bridgerton even though it was never painted with that in mind.
The skin tone shades against the monochromatic dress makes for a striking contrast

I have always loved to paint and draw and have been fortunate to spend many years working in a creative field. With my children now finished school, I have made the transition to focus on and develop my own art.
I have periodically entered art shows and have recorded sales at the Red Hill Art Show, The Knox Art Show, The Albert Park College Art Show, and the Ripper Art Show. And in 2023, I was named a finalist in the Art to Art Unearthed Art Prize.

My first solo exhibition was held in 2024 at Glowing Structures, 541 Chapel St. STH Yarra and I’m still painting commissions from that show - the hard work was worth it!
I’m looking forward to more exhibiting opportunities in the near future.

I work in acrylics, but you may see some inkwork creeping in and I have just discovered oil pastels! I use both canvas and board.
Whilst I love painting faces and figures, I am always interested to explore new concepts and techniques so my hope is for you to see a diverse range of subjects and be part of my growth and evolution.

Commissions are most welcome!
