About The Artwork

'Magic Mountain' is from my most recent series "UNDERCURRENT". I have a deep affinity with the ocean. With over one hundred dives in the past decade I've spent a lot of time under the water with corals & pelagics of the ocean. The mystery, magic, and intensity of diving deep and finding a magic mountain atoll deep at the bottom of the sea is so inspiring. I love to travel extensively to experience and sketch in remote areas throughout Australia & overseas - especially the Raja Ampat Islands in the Indonesian Archipelago near West Papua. The corals are so healthy, intensely coloured with rich and diverse varieties of coral and sea life - its paradise. In this latest series I've experimented with amorphous shapes and lines using mixed media and materials (acrylic paint, oil paint, metallic dust, irridescent pigments) to represent my connection to the underwater world while diving. My paintings are a response to memory and the experience of meditation deep under the surface. In “Undercurrents” these mixed-media works on canvas and paper aim to be provoking, inspiring, playful artworks. I hope you enjoy them! This original artwork is framed ready to hang in natural Tasmanian oak box frame with an anti glare quality gallery glass.

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!!
