ARTIST STATEMENT

My artwork is inspired by variety of stimulus but my process for each work is the same. The world around me is my constant inspiration whether it is the beautiful suburb of Wynnum Manly where I live or just a bunch of flowers that have been delivered to my door. It is important to explore each stimulus by producing a body of work, some providing me with years of inspiration that I revisit over time.

My graphic design background has always influenced my process, interpreting the content of photographs, simplifying the content and colours to create the composition. I use a variety of mark making techniques and art materials including aerosols, inks, acrylics and pencil building layers of interest. I like the idea that every time you look into my work you will see something different. Making art makes me happy and hanging my art in your home will make you happy as well.
