My underwater series depicts abstracted underwater scenes where schools of fish swim and swirl in harmony.

My work is inspired by my love of nature and the feelings evoked when I am in natural environments, from the ocean to forests, bushland and mountains. I try to maintain a daily connection with my natural environment, and start my day walking my dog near the ocean. For some time now, I have been painting the underwater world. My early significant connection with the ocean began with an unfortunate encounter with a stingray. This experience became a focus in my artwork, and over time evolved from a fear of the ocean into an appreciation of its beauty. There is a beauty when painting from an experience, memory and feeling. My hope is that my work touches the senses and imaginations of the viewer and transforms the view to a calm and peaceful state of mind. Recently I have also started to paint my underwater scenes with pink to bring another element and diversity to my work.
