21.01.2022 It was a great day for painting today and in between showers of rain I got a walk. Queensland winter is so mild it’s no hardship at all.
21.01.2022 Upcoming workshop with Kym Barrett "Abstracting the Landscape" Mark-Making and Collage. This will be a fantastic two-day (3-4th October) workshop. Starting off ...in the beautiful Mary Caincross Reserve. At this stage, we will be in Kym's words, "Responding quickly with your own unique marks, charcoal and paint without needing to accurately record what’s there. The focus will be on a tonal interpretation, mark-making and expressive response." After a morning spent doing this, we will be going to the workshop space at "The Zone" to continue the magic....

18.01.2022 I love sharing my studio space with budding artists. I love the colour choices and the ever evolving stories that go with the art.
16.01.2022 Photos like this are often such an inspiration for my art work. Not that I have a paint them exactly but sometimes it’s the meeting of the horizontal and vertical or the colour on the horizon that sings to me.
15.01.2022 Yellow to me denotes positivity and happiness so what better way to start the new year then with yellow doodles! Good health and happiness to all

07.01.2022 Wouldn’t it be interesting to know why when I look out my window and see rolling green hills I paint them in these ochre colours. Because the soil here is red as red can be or is it the energy of these colours that I love?
