Artist’s Statement
I enjoy watercolours for their luminous glow and unpredictability and feel my use of strong colour makes my work unique. More recently I have ventured into the world of mixed media and am enjoying the variety this offers. My main subjects of interest are still life/interiors and animals. I have won many prizes including first prize in the Watercolour society of Queensland’s annual exhibition 2016.
