About The Artwork

Painting from imagination I create loose imagery of corals & sea life revisiting the scintillating colours I see on my dives. When you’re diving you constantly want to reach out & touch everything - maybe not the sea snakes & sharks...but the coral & anemones yes! And you don’t. This is the inspiration for this abstract coral & anemone painting...just want to touch you I started my meditation journey when I was nineteen. Diving and painting takes me to a meditative space. I love to be in connection with the land and sea. I am aiming to recreate that feeling of being awestruck, the feeling of expansiveness and unity while being out in the middle of nowhere, deep down by the edge of a coral reef wall in the middle of the ocean.

I am a Sydney based artist with a deep affinity to the land and ocean. Every day before my studio practice I have a long early morning walk either on the beach or through bushland and national parks. I find calm and creative inspiration in wide open places or under the sea. My connection with the land becomes an inward journey, where memory and creative process reshape the external experience, allowing the paint, memory and inner vision to spontaneously create new colours, textures, shapes and lines in the “inner landscape” that then evolves. I have spent a lot of time scuba diving coral reefs with pelagics of the ocean, and travel extensively to experience and sketch in remote areas throughout Australia & overseas. I have many different series, I like mixing it up, and experiment to find new styles that I enjoy painting. I would be bored otherwise and I like the challenge to create something unique and spontaneous. My paintings are a response to memory and the calming connected experience I have being on land. I have created mixed-media works on canvas and paper aiming for inspiring, bold and playful artworks. I hope you enjoy them!!
