Artist’s Statement
I am a self taught artist allowing me to experiment and develop something that is my own. I Find art to be one of the few things I enjoy in life, it allows an escapism that I hadn't or never thought I'd find. It's purity in a raw form. I primarily use acrylics to create dream like wonder, a place to day dream that takes you away from the reality you're currently in.
Biography
Australian artist living in Toowoomba, Queensland I began painting in 2016 after I lost my father to cancer. This changed how I began to view the world and within my art I attempt to make it more mystical and hopeful. It is my dream to eventually be able to paint full time. I want to encourage other people to get into it since it allows free expression and self-reflection that has turned me into the person I am now. Currently working in an operating theatre at the local hospital.
