In this painting I wanted to portray humanities effort to defy ageing and mortality. 
My aim in this series of portraits is to express the mood of the subject with the surreal elements around her.

Acrylic on canvas 120 x 90cm framed and ready to hang

As an artist I have exhibited over 33 times, and my work has been sold to collectors all over the world. 
If there's just a few things I could share about myself I would say I love storytelling, I have a curious personality, and my mind is often dreaming about the future. 

I've been a creative person my whole life, starting with colouring in comic books when I was a little kid and have been a pretty big comic nerd ever since. What I love so much about comics is the amplified storytelling, and my love of storytelling has carried through all elements of my life. For me it's the storytelling that I love in jokes, music, movies, relationships and art. 
​ 
It's my curious nature that often has me stopping to notice the colour combinations of plants, landscapes, cityscapes and seascapes. These offerings I see everyday feed my inspiration. My curious nature also drives a lot of my art themes. I use my art to figure things out, how the body, the mind, the heart, and nature works. Funnily enough I also like to build things because I get a buzz figuring out how things go together. 
​ 
It's in part from my curiosity that I am often dreaming about the future. Sometimes in the short term thinking about what I can do for my next project or art series, and often in the distant future thinking about what the earth will be like in a thousand years, what a colonised mars will be like, what a future human will be.

A life long fascination with the human psyche has held me in the gravitational pull of themes of identity, the essence of emotion and the impact of individual in the world. My recent art work centres around visual reflections of my thoughts and feelings, exploring the broad spectrum of emotion through surreal figurative works. Most often the art is depicted through a vision themed by dreamscapes and figures referenced half in our reality and half in fantasy. Through these works I aim to explore the relationship between mortality and spirituality, in themes of identity, nature and beauty.
