Where did my journey begin?
Later than some......
It was arriving in Spain, a country of such vibrancy and colour. To then travel through Europe and view and be inspired by such masters as Picasso, Monet, Matisse and Miro. When I came back to Australia I began painting, first in water colours and more recently in acrylics and oils.
In 2007 I went to Antibes and had lessons from a marvelous teacher who told me to keep painting. He said my colours were French.
In 2008 I again traveled to France again to have further lessons.
Also in 2008 I enrolled into a single Painting elective at Melbourne's RMIT University. I am pleased to say I passed the subject and was fortunate to receive a High Distinction. This support , learning, experience and encouragement I received at RMIT is something I am very grateful for.
In 2009 I had my first 'mini' exhibitions in some commercial establishments around Melbourne.
A great commercial learning curve!
Currently in 2010 I am working on around 4 paintings a week.
In 2010 my aim is to have more small showings for my work and in 2010, my first major exhibition in 2011.
I hope you will look at my paintings and see something that fires your imagination

I have some new paintings to be added to the online gallery shortly-they are all different styles.
Two are on canvas and modern .
The other 3 women are on paper .
I have others in various stages of completion many different colors and styles.
Two of these works in progress have added contrast of painters putty on canvas in an abstract style. Being a fan of Picasso I have done several in a similar style vain but with my style mixed in of course.
After my recents travels to the the US and Caribbean seem to be impacting on some of the works. When my latest pieces become available online shortly I think regular readers will notice a new brightness to my paintings.
The color flavors to my work changes, much the same as the 4 seasons of the year.
