From the artist...
Drawing, painting and designing for as long as I can remember, I work from the kitchen table, based at the bottom of Mount Grey in rural North Canterbury. I work mainly with acrylics, oils and pencils.

Artist's Statement:
"I’ve always had an admiration for architecture and I am inspired by New Zealand’s character-filled buildings and the majesty of its landscape and its nature. From which I like to combine my modern designs with a stylistic and simplistic approach, then I add a kiwi flavour, mixed with striking, bold colour, creating an eye-catching piece and perhaps even sparking memories for the viewer.

I have had some training in Practical Art, Technical Drawing and History of Art, but I am mostly self-taught. I have a strong love for my work, devoting countless hours. I have a love of colour and a craving for detail, so keeping the simplistic approach with my love of detail is always a challenge. It's safe to say I enjoy painting larger works as I feel I can have both detail and simplicity."
