I moved from the country in the early 1980s and a new life began when I enrolled at Carine T.A.F.E to do a Diploma in Art Studies. I loved, not just the experience of my own painting, but being involved with the art community in W.A.
Thankfully my involvement continues today. I’m very honoured to be a life member of the Pastel Society of W.A and the Trigg Art Group.
I use all mediums but enjoy pastels the most and these paintings pictured here are all pastels. I’m inspired by the love of the landscape and coast and use sunlight and shadows to express this love.
