2018 Southern Highlands Art Trail Open Studio

Thank you everyone who visited my studio during the Art Studio Trail. It is always a pleasure to meet new and interesting folk and to catch up with old friends and acquaintances.

The work that I had on display ranged from never exhibited, demonstration, old pre-loved to current new work. As I am not with a gallery at the moment, my work does not include commission or GST.

Please contact me for any enquiries.

Currently I am a finalist in the 2018 Fisher’s Ghost Open Art Award , the Fisher’s Ghost Contemporary Art Award and the 2018 Blacktown City Art Prize.

Easter Afternoon, Fowler’s Gap (60 x 60cm acrylic on canvas) was painted as part of a series of works that I began, and continue to create, referencing and inspired by my artist residency at the UNSW Research Station in the arid desert zone of Fowler’s Gap, 120 km north of Broken Hill, NSW.

Sorry I’m Late

Sorry I’m Late is a great little cafe in Brunswick that has just recently opened. Address is 2a/10 Breese Street, parallel to Sydney Road off Hope Street.

Unlike a lot of Melbourne cafes, Sorry I’m Late has colour and a different vibe. Great music, fantastic coffee, wacky cards and seriously good abstract paintings by me from the last 10 years or so at seriously negotiable prices.

Oh, and there is food and can I mention again, great coffee!!

Levels of Landscape

I do not copy my subject but interpret it as I feel at the time of painting. Drawing, memory and imagination, and using colours and materials that I feel like using, keep me absorbed in the whole process. Sometimes the resulting work comes like a delayed reaction as if my work needs an incubation period – it needs to mature or un-mature.
I know that juggling life and art has its costs and rewards.
There you go….today’s statement maybe it will be different tomorrow!
