“My work is a response to the unique, shifting light of the Australian landscape—particularly the golden hours at dawn and dusk, when the world seems to hold its breath. I am drawn to the Northern Tablelands of New South Wales, where rolling hills, granite outcrops, and wide skies meet in quiet, expansive harmony.
Through painting, I aim to capture not just the visual beauty of this region, but its atmosphere—how light clings to the edges of a tree line, how long shadows stretch across fields, and how a warm glow can turn the ordinary into the sacred.

These moments are fleeting, and yet they carry a timeless presence. Working mostly in oils, I build layers that reflect the texture and translucency of light as it moves through crisp morning air or the warm afternoon glow on a hillside. My palette is guided by observation, but memory and emotion shape the final image.

Ultimately, my paintings are a meditation on place and presence. They offer a stillness in which viewers can reconnect with nature’s quiet drama, and with the gentle power of light in the Australian bush.
