about
artist | nature lover | creator
I am an emerging landscape and botanical artist, living and creating on the unceded lands of the Turrbul people in Meanjin/Brisbane. I have a deep love for the land I live on and I would like to express my gratitude for First Nations Peoples continued care and custodianship of Country.
my art story so far
For me drawing never had a starting point - for as long as I can remember I have drawn from nature - my garden, the bushland across the road, scenes from road trips. As I grew older, university studies and life stressors left me feeling overwhelmed and with little mental energy to spare - I had lost that creative spark and couldn't even bring myself to pick up a pencil.
In 2021 I couldn't ignore the burnout anymore, and I made the hard decision to put my life on pause to recover. Gradually, creative inspiration and ideas returned. I felt the motivation to paint again for the first time in years.
Since then, my art practice has fluctuated depending on what is going on in my life and I've dabbled in various mediums, trying to find my style.
I'm not quite there yet but I feel like I'm starting to catch glimpses of it here and there. I hope you can join me on my journey of discovery.
