Description

Mixed media on canvas 200 x 200 mm

A new way of looking at nature. My paintings are influenced by our dynamic west coast environment. I choose rich colours, textures and layers to recreate and share the sense of freedom, space and connection I experience when I am outdoors. My work explores areas in nature that undergo transition and changes, like weather, seasons and tides. It’s these differences, changes and shifts that make art and life interesting. Artwork, like our beautiful region, should be experienced, and I hope to encourage viewers of my work to take a moment, to pause, and give themselves a little time just for themselves, to sink into a painting and connect with make makes them feel alive.
