I’m an Australian artist from Point Lonsdale on Victoria’s south coast. My passion is colour – paintings celebrating the beach in Summer.  

I am a Painter, Illustrator, Graphic artist, and Arts Educator.  I’ve exhibited my paintings in the UK, Italy, France and the luxuriant Maldives of the Indian Ocean. My art is found around Australia and internationally.  My work has been merchandised onto clothing, prints, placemats, greeting cards and glossy posters.
