Although art was one of my best subjects at school, I didn’t commence oil painting until 2021, so I am a newcomer to the art world! My Mum, who was an accomplished artist in her time, handed me some old oil paints one day. I was immediately hooked on the buttery, forgiving nature of oils.

I love to paint scenes of my surrounding environment, trying to find light and shadows in my subjects. I consider myself an impressionist artist and I love to use both brushes and palette knives in my work.

I try to enter many art competitions around Brisbane and learn as much as I can from attending galleries and educating myself on art processes and the art world.

Although I work full time as a WHS Officer across 3 Primary schools, I am passionate about dedicating my spare time to painting and improving on my artwork.
