My art practise… revolves around Nature and environmental issues, and combines my two passions – Art, and protecting the Environment – into a working whole. My painting style varies from realism to the slightly Surrealistic, and is focused on the biodiversity of the Albany region – particularly our rare and endangered flora and fauna. I’m currently undertaking a series of watercolour paintings of local birds and other creatures, and our tiny local native orchids – I find watercolour is a medium which suits these, for fine detail and translucent colour. For bolder statement pieces, referencing our ongoing climate disasters, oils give me the necessary dramatic effect. Living in Lower King is a bonus, wildlife abounds around my home studio.

Why I create… because it’s who I am, it’s always been essential to me – not always artistically, often in other ways. Now, my creativity is focused on helping Conservation efforts, and this is extremely important to me. Portraying the beauty and fragility of the natural world, I aim to draw peoples attention to what we are losing – before it’s too late! I produce photographic prints and greetings cards from my paintings, and a variety of unique jewellery etc, with the aim of spreading the conservation message more widely. I’m also into graphics and web design – same focus.

My art journey… began in my childhood and youth, was severely interrupted during adulthood, and resumed on retiring early due to disability. I took Cert.4 in Visual Arts and Crafts at Challenger TAFE in 2010, then a B.A. through Open University. Moving to Albany in 2012 was a key moment for me. Albany Art Group has been a practical education, and an inspiration. Currently, I’m a founding member of Down South Arts and Crafts Collective, which provides a shopfront for a group of local artists/crafters.
