I have always drawn however it wasn’t until the birth of my son in 1996
that I gave up work and began to paint in earnest whilst looking after two small children. I
turned professional in 2003 when I participated in the Fourth Edition of the Biennale
Internazionale dell’Arte Contemporanea in Florence Italy. Participation in this event
was by invitation only and an International Committee chose artists solely on merit. Since
then I have exhibited locally, interstate and internationally and interest in my work is
growing. I am represented by galleries in Brisbane, Sydney and the Gold Coast and in private
collections in Australia, Spain, China, Germany, Ireland, Canada and the United States.
Light on form is my inspiration and fuels
all my work. I start each piece as an exercise in lighting form, whether that form is the
human figure, or the landscape/seascape, and each piece invariably progresses into a
spiritual journey where the painting evolves into a vignette of my everyday life – the
emotions, the responses to external events and pressures, and the ongoing spiritual
reflection: all rarely articulated. Whilst not intentional the women in my paintings feel
and face pain and in my landscapes a deep emotion is evoked. This emotion comes as I paint
and subconsciously it dictates the creation of each facet of the painting – the
palette, the background, the brushstrokes. Each piece takes me on a journey, sometimes
unwelcome but always illuminating.
