My interest in art started at high school. Art was my top subject. I had lessons on perspective, design and the use of different mediums. I entered several competitions with some success.
Around 2008/9 I attended weekly classes at the Waikato Art Society.
I moved to Waihi Beach in 2010 and joined the Waihi Art Group. I am currently a member of Waihi Plein Air.
I exhibit at local art exhibitions in Waihi Beach and in local cafes.
I have met many talented artists and through their help and encouragement I have been able to further my expertise and develop into a successful artist.
I use different mediums that include oils, acrylics, water colour, texture, ink and collage.
My work is quite eclectic, and ranges from contemporary and abstract to stylized and representational.
I have my own studio at Waihi Beach and am open to the public over the summer period or by appointment.
