I reside in rural New South Wales, Australia, where the beauty of the landscape often inspires my creativity. My journey in art began with a Bachelor Degree in Fine Art from the National Art School in Darlinghurst. I majored in Photography and was incredibly proud to receive High Distinctions for Life Drawing. Those moments of recognition filled me with a sense of accomplishment and fueled my passion for the arts.

In 2022, I decided to embark on a new adventure by changing my medium. I became fascinated with how I could translate the artistry of traditional art forms into the digital realm. My training in analogue techniques—drawing and photography—has never left me. I find that the tactical thinking and aesthetic qualities I honed in traditional painting and drawing seamlessly inform my digital works. It’s as if I’m weaving the threads of my past into the fabric of my present.

As I watched the rise of eCommerce stores, I realized they were opening doors for small businesses like mine. I saw an opportunity to create a platform where I could represent my art authentically. Building my website from the ground up was both challenging and exhilarating. I navigated the complexities of remote production practices, learning the ins and outs of shipping. Each step I took felt like laying the foundation for my dream to become a reality.

My artworks draw inspiration from the beauty I see around me—people, nature, light, colour, and composition. Utilizing a print-on-demand production process ensures that each piece I create is unique to me, something that cannot be found anywhere else. This individuality is incredibly important to me; it’s a reflection of my vision and my heart.

Even as I carve my path, I remain deeply connected to the art community through social media and online platforms. These connections have opened up exciting opportunities for me to share my work and showcase my pieces around the world. Each exhibition is a reminder of the journey I’ve taken and the dreams I continue to chase.
