Hello! I’m an artist and photographer based in Melbourne, Australia.

Creativity has always been in my blood, and since an early age I have always been creating. As a child I was always making drawings for everyone around me, and in my teenage years I took a fascination toward portraits and would always be drawing faces in my school books. It wasn’t until my illustration class at university that I fell in love with watercolour and started experimenting with that, followed by acrylics.

After years of struggling with motivation toward my artwork, whilst working as a freelance graphic designer and photographer, I finally found my passion again. It’s only been about two years since I’ve started creating daily, finding joy in abstract and fluid painting.

I’ve been obsessed with colour since I was little and often sported rainbow outfits, which surprisingly wasn’t considered cool, who knew? Orange is my favourite colour, followed by pink, which you’ll see a lot of in my artwork. I like to think of my artwork as bright and happy, and I hope you find joy and happiness in them also.
