I am an Australian landscape painter situated in the picturesque coastal city of Newcastle (NSW). I draw inspiration from the simple beauty of our natural environment to create oil paintings that capture the essence of tranquillity. I offer the audience an opportunity to find solace in nature’s embrace. Through my paintings I enjoy sharing the sense of calm felt when we pause in nature and catch our breath, here time stands still, and worries melt away. I have a particular love for bodies of water, clouds and rugged rocks.
In 2021 I took up residence at Onwards Gallery and Studios which has greatly propelled my development as an artist. I have exhibited works in group exhibitions at Onwards Gallery and Studios, The Creator Incubator, Newcastle Art Space and John Hunter Hospital (Arts of Health program) and this year I won the Hall & Wilcox Law Firm’s local emerging artist prize which was an acquisition of my artwork.
Established in 2021, the National Emerging Art Prize was created to provide an annual, highly visible national platform to identify, promote and support the most promising emerging visual and ceramic artists in Australia.
