I have recently moved to rural Matarau from Auckland and have been holidaying at the Heads since 1994. I began painting for exhibitions and galleries in 1994 before graduating from AUT with a Bachelor of Visual Design in 2000. I have work in private collections in New Zealand, North America, Singapore and Australia. |
A recent snorkeling trip to the Poor Knights Islands swimming amongst a soup of salps and the fabulous underwater gardens has inspired my latest series ‘Ocean Drifters’.
Memories of the shapes and brilliant colours of sponges, swaying seaweeds and other creatures appear in my work as floating organic forms.
