Lookout

A watchful kookaburra is shown perched on a banksia tree looking out over the bush. The curving leaves and pods unique to the iconic banksia grandis tree are distinctive and recognisable in this stylized painting.

A limited palette of blue and purple watercolour washes are light filled and held together with organic linework resulting in a stained glass effect.

Her art practice encompasses printmaking and painting with a focus on linocut and watercolour. Nature is a constant throughout her work with native flowers and birds as subjects and motifs.

Art Nouveau and stained glass work have been an enduring inspiration and are echoed throughout her pieces. Juxtaposing flat ink against textural and tonal watercolour washes create a tactility in her still life and botanical pieces.
