My paintings are inspired by my daily interactions with nature, the feeling of being surrounded by and immersed in the trees and foliage, the rustling leaves, shifting light, and rich textures of the bush.
My Process
I often begin painting by quickly applying thin washes of colour and drawing back into the work with pastel and other media. I work intuitively, building and removing layers to reveal other colours beneath, attempting to capture the feeling of being in a place rather than a specific image.
