Artist’s Statement

The natural environment is my painting obsession as I form connections with my home surrounds and link the way place can create a sense of belonging and connection to nature around. I  worked from my home studio in Burnett Heads for the last 13 years and now in the hills surrounding the  Lockyer Valley and I am creatively motivated and inspired by the location and sense of place :whether it’s trees, my potted plants waiting to be put into the garden, the birds, the hills or the mountains in the distance.
