I began exhibiting and selling my work in many art shows around Melbourne and rural Victoria in the 1980’s. I began to win various prizes for my work in some of the local and regional art shows (see list of prizes). I was invited to exhibit in several exhibitions, and held a solo exhibition in 1987. (see list of exhibitions) I enjoy finding innovative non-traditional ways to exhibit my art where I can collaborate with complimentary partners – thus my solo exhibition was held in a Morwell Toyota Showroom coinciding with their wine & cheese night to launch a new model car.
In the early 1990’s we moved to Canberra which became our home for 25 years. In Canberra I gained experience painting murals and trompe l’oeil as public and community art projects and some as private commissions.
NOWADAYS…
In 2016 we moved back to Victoria where we are enjoying our small acreage in Gippsland. I now have more time to focus on my art and am getting back into it in a serious (but fun) way.
Lately I have been establishing an on-line presence through my website, and various social media platforms – and making my latest artworks available for sale as originals, and some also available as prints. Covid lockdowns have given me more time to develop my style, learn new techniques, experiment and grow to be a stronger more accomplished and confident artist.
I hope my work brings joy to you – please follow me on Facebook and Instagram to view my new works before they come online and to show your support which helps me keep going.
