ABOUT THE ARTWORK
Nature inspires my painting. Flowers are wonderful to paint. They provide delicious colours, and wonderful organic shapes and lines. The presence of flowers in the home helps reduce anxiety and depression. Receiving flowers from another immediately lifts the mood and reduces anxiety. Some flowers like nasturtiums and violets can be eaten, and provide colourful garnishes to our salads. Others like chamomile and lavender encourage restful sleep. Planting flowers has environmental benefits as the flower's leaves absorb carbon dioxide and release oxygen. In addition to the benefits flowers provide to the local ecosystem, they also greatly benefit humans. The natural bugs and birds that flowers attract help keep our own surrounding environment healthy. The seeds that flowers drop and pollinate locally produce more plants, and more fruits and vegetables for us to eat.

AUSTRALIAN ARTIST I am an Australian artist working in Adelaide, South Australia. I paint mostly in oil, but occasionally use acrylic paints. Landscapes, seascapes, cityscapes, flower paintings and abstract paintings are included in my repertoire of work. INSPIRATION FOR MY ART As an Australian artist, my inspiration comes from whatever is around me at a particular time. As an example, following a recent trip to the mid north of South Australia, I produced a series of landscape paintings, which include the beautiful Eucalyptus trees and flowers from local gardens. HISTORY My original study was textile design and Adelaide's School of Art and Craft. I then worked for 20 years in various forms of art and fashion. But, in 1997 I followed my other passion, natural health. Since arriving back in Adelaide from Sydney in 1999 I have worked full time as a Naturopath. However, in recent years I have devoted much more time to my painting. Moving full circle, as a practicing Australian artist. This includes participating in exhibitions. Also fulfilling my love of learning by continuing to study and improve my art practice, wherever and whenever I can. Over this period I have attended many and varied art courses and workshops in this time including Peter Bok at Bapea Art School, Liana Vargas Cat Leonard, and Krystina at Splashout Studio, Chelsea Lehman, Trena Everuss and Nona Burden at Adelaide Central School, John Lacey, Ruby Chew, Sophie Hann, Gerhard Ritter, and Deborah Trusson. WHERE ELSE TO FIND ME I regularly post to Facebook, Instagram and Twitter.
