Welcome to my creative world, where I turn my ideas into original art for you.  My pieces explore the intricate interplay of shape, form, and design within themes of landscapes and our natural world.
Focusing on the elegance of rock and land formations, the vitality of trees, plants, and the allure of our natural world and how we use these spaces.
I have worked with watercolour since 2019 and have recently ventured into gel plate print making to
further explore texture, layers and design elements
within a new medium. 
​
I have cultivated a unique style that blends various techniques allowing me to create and bring ideas to life through my art. From subtle watercolour washes, printed textures, to hand drawn illustrated elements and characters.
​
Compositions are more than representations of a landscape or an object, but more an invitation to experience the quiet strength, a playful elegance and possibly even memories of a place, a moment in time.

 I work from my home studio on Auckland's
North shore, New Zealand. My work is available here on my website or see below for galleries that have works available and for any up coming art sales.
