"Story Book Princess " Dreaming Embrace" " Painting

In 1997 I started my artists study at St Kevin's School, Qld in grade 3 attending art classes with the schools' art coordinator. When I reached grades 11 and 12 at AB Patterson College, the arts coordinator encouraged me to paint and experiment with new mediums. "¨"¨During this period, I was shortlisted for the 2006 Ministers Awards for Education in Art. "¨I became Art Captain of the school and during this year, earned one of the highest academic grades a Qld student can achieve in the arts. "¨"¨I again exhibited in the Ministers Awards in 2007 and was a shortlisted winner. I then entered the Queensland Youth Art Awards in which I recieved a prize. "¨"¨From my success in these awards I was approached to exhibit at Art Gallery Schubert and my 'Dreamlessly' series has been shown there very successfully, leading to me being collected by a number of international collectors. I now sell from Anthea Polson Art. I have been producing this latest body of work whilst studying at Griffith University, which I am graduating from later this year, as a Fine Artist.
