“I began watercolour painting in 2003 after attending a basic course on technique and have worked with pastel for over 30 years.
In 2016 I completed a Natural History Illustration course on-line.
I have recently been developing my skills with ink and coloured pencils. In the future, printmaking and oils will be the next challenge.
My favourite subject in watercolour is close up detailed work of leaf litter, flowers, fruit and various other themes. I also enjoy creating landscapes and seascapes with pastel. Another area of interest is Botanical art, I love the clean lines and intricate detail.
I often participate in group exhibitions and local art shows and have been lucky enough to win numerous prizes. I have also been published in the Australian Artist Magazine twice as a finalist in painting competitions.
I have been a member of the Ballarat Society of Artists since 2005.”
