I work with wax, oils and photos to create translucent, layered and fluid art. The aim is to reveal both my awe and concern for the local environment.
More recent work shows the youth of tomorrow experiencing the climatic impacts on the landscape and oceans. The artwork aims to give agency to young people whilst reminding the audience of their duty of care to the environment and to the next generation.
After early years of working and traveling in remote communities of Australia, I now live in the Moreton Bay Region, Queensland, with my husband and two children. For over 15 years I was exhibiting in Sydney and also interstate in Brisbane and Melbourne. My work is held in private and public collections both in Australia and overseas.
