ABOUT
I’m a Brisbane-based artist creating bold, structured compositions that explore the tension between emotion and order. My work often moves between architectural and figurative forms, always grounded by clean, contrasting lines and a dynamic tonal palette.
As I fully embrace life as an artist, I still work as a theatre nurse in one of Brisbane’s major hospitals—a position that has sharpened my eye for precision and deepened my understanding of human vulnerability. That sense of care and attention to detail echoes in my work.
I originally come from a small outback town in rural Queensland, where wide horizons and quiet stillness shaped my view the world. Those early years gave me a strong connection to country, contrast, and storytelling.
What drives me is the interplay of geometry, colour, and feeling. I particularly enjoy building precise, balanced compositions, then quietly disrupting them. Subtle mismatches in line or shape invite you to look a little closer, to feel the push and pull between control and vulnerability.
Each painting I create is a reflection of my curiosity and intuition. I aim to make work that feels strong yet sensitive. Art that not only draws the eye, but also leaves a lasting impression.
If something in my work resonates with you, I hope it finds a place in your home and story.
