bio

​

I live in Burrill Lake, on the NSW South Coast, Australia.

I don't remember a time when I didn't draw or a time when I didn't need to be immersed in nature. The natural world is very important to me and my happiness, as is art making. I'm concerned with the modern loss of connection with nature, which extends to a loss of connection with community that many people feel, so in my art practice I create images of humans morphed with animals and plants to remind us that we ARE nature. We are just another species. If we don't have the natural world, we don't have us. And we need to look after ourselves and our fellow human beings as well.

The theme of my art delves into dreams, mythology, metaphysics and pop surrealism.

I have shown in group and solo shows on the South Coast, in Sydney, Canberra, Far NQ and the south of France.

I have worked in illustration and design, ran a Council Art Gallery and worked for over 20 years as a community engagement artist with young people and adults, and with First Nations people in remote communities. ​
