Since graduating from Sydney College of the Arts in 1979, my art practice has developed through a variety of mediums; jewellery and object design, sculpture, installation art and drawing, however now I am mostly working with painting.
I relocated from Sydney to the Blue Mountains over twenty years ago and have been absorbed by my natural surroundings ever since.
My background in jewellery and object design has helped focus my attention on the minutia of the bush, those small things that hold me momentarily as all else stands still. Other paintings draw on travel and road trips, the vastness of the wilderness areas that surround me and the changing sky above that emphasise the smallness of my individual human presence.
The artists Georgia O’Keeffe, Colin McCahon, J.M.W. Turner, Barbara Tuck, James Gleeson, William Robinson, Russell Drysdale, Suzanne Archer and many others have influenced me.
