Originally practicing as an oil painter, I discovered my affinity for printmaking in 2004. I enjoy the iterative layering of detail and colour enabled by the printmaking process as I explore our connection to the natural environment.
Perspective
My printmaking practice is primarily in intaglio techniques including zinc and copper plate etchings, photopolymer etching, collagraph, and drypoint. My works typically begin with a sketch or photograph where I am observing the macro and micro patterns in nature and noticing the subtle colours that surround us.

I have exhibited at Hazelhurst Regional Gallery, Hurstville Museum and Gallery, The Shop Gallery, and was a finalist for the Hornsby Art Prize in 2018.
I live and work in southern Sydney and frequently visit the NSW south coast for inspiration.
