About the Artist

I am a painter specializing in large format abstract

impressionism. For me, abstraction means transcending the subject of my work, representing its essence, and reflecting the emotional responses triggered by natural forms, colour and light. These impressions allow the viewer to take ownership and engage with their own experiences, half forgotten memories and desires, to create meaning and complete these works. I am influenced by landscapes, seascapes, botanical

themes, and the elemental forces within. My style is

born from a life shaped in wild, beautiful places. I

was born in NZ and grew up in Central Otago. These

big landscapes have been pivotal to my career as an

artist and still influence my work today. My life and studio space is now in Ashgrove, Brisbane. I continually explore the surrounding environment from upper NSW, country Queensland to the Sunshine Coast and Hinterland, for the

nuances and perspectives that inspire new paintings.
