Biography

Previously working as a Marketing Manager in large food companies, I moved to Perth in 2008, juggling being a mum of three, with my Fine Art Degree. I then volunteered as a curator at Fine Art at Hale. My art career highlights include a recent solo exhibition at Gallows Gallery, Perth, entitled Walk of Wonder: Reflections from the Cape to Cape Track. I sell my work through Perth exhibitions and group shows, via national online galleries and my website shop, in addition to bespoke private commissions. I enjoy nurturing budding artists and sharing painting techniques with fellow creatives through art classes and workshops, which I now host in my garden studio, near Dunsborough.

Building layers of expressive and experimental marks, to develop areas of unique visual texture via a wide array of tools and mediums. My current focus is the Cape to Cape Track
