Based in the Southern Highlands of NSW, Australia, I have enjoyed life in the Highlands with my husband and two children for the last 21 years.
Since 2017, I have made the gradual transition from Family Portrait Photographer to full-time Artist, initially being the first Artist-in-Residence at the popular vintage shopping precinct of Dirty Janes Bowral.
Working in oil, watercolour and gouache, acrylic, paper clay, ceramics, assemblage and photoshop, my techniques are varied and ever changing but my vintage illustrative and whimsical style is fast becoming my signature look.
Opening my own shop in Dirty Janes Bowral I co-ordinate my signed prints with hand picked vintage frames sourced far and wide. Accompanied by original works, greeting cards, loose prints, sculptures and jewelry, a visit to my space will take you to a visual wonderland.
