My past skills are many, as a qualified art teacher I have ventured into a number of areas to extend my creative ambitions and explore various mediums. From hand crafted and wheel thrown decorative pottery to stained glass creations including feature church windows and jewellery design and manufacture. Each new skill taught me a better understanding of composition, colour, textures, dimensions and structure.

My love of the sea inspired many oil paintings often with the calm and gentleness we all love but some are wild and violent as the sea is to be respected. New Zealand landscape, it’s flora and fauna, light and atmosphere excite me whilst the beauty of flowers inspire me to paint them in their exquisite beauty.

I have exhibited widely in NZ and Australia, though my works are in many countries abroad. Travel has taught me so much and expanded my horizons so I do as a result paint many different subjects and places. My heart however is here at home in NZ. Based in Auckland The beautiful Waitemata harbour has inspired many works but there is so much more with in our lovely country crying out to be painted.

Much of my works are between one and two meters, ideal for that focal point to your room but not all as smaller works are ideal when space is limited. I began painting in water colours in the 1980s, then moved into oil pastels before settling on my favourite; oils on canvas. This medium is perfect for its colour stability and longevity as well as ideal for large works.

I vary my style of painting as I see more than one way to express myself and enjoy the creative process. I welcome commissions and strive to paint works that will bring years of pleasure to the owner.
