Inspired by the beauty and grace of birds an beasts.
I have been a local resident of Puhoi for almost eight years. I originally learnt to paint with oils during my A Level Art Painting course at school in Sussex in the UK. I had not painted since until early retirement from corporate life gave me the time to take up an art again – a gap of over fort years.
In 2017, I took my first class at Estuary Art Centre in Orewa, reawakening my love of painting, now with acrylic paints. Earlier this year, I was fortunate to be awarded the Estuary Arts Centre Student Merit Award for my Garden Tui painting in acrylics. I have subsequently sold numerous artworks and completed a number of commissions.
My paintings are predominantly inspired by nature and I enjoy capturing as much detail as I can to obtain a realistic life-like result.
