Interests and Personality
| Biography | I started painting in 1970 while practising as an Architect. My main inspiration is Nature and the unique landscapes and flora of Australia - the unspoilt countryside, wilderness areas, wetlands, outback deserts and seashores.
My paintings not only encapsulate the essential elements, colours and features of a particular place, but also recreate the ambience and the ‘feel’ of being there.
I tend to create playful, colourful and inspiring images, which are both optimistic and spiritually uplifting. My aim is to capture the spirit of the Australian continent using contemporary sensibilities.
