Australian painter in watercolour and oil, preferring the authentic approach without the digital helps!
“Twelve Bar Blues”, Watercolour on Arches, Urban Life Series. How good is the live music in Maleny? I snapped a photo of these handsome fellas a few years ago at the Maleny Music Festival #livemusic #sunshinecoastmusic #jazz #jazzband #musicpainting #malenyart #malenyartist #localmusic

“Reading in the Drop Sheets” was a finalist in the Queensland Figurative in 2024 and went on to win Second Prize! Oil on Board. Judges comments likened it to Vermeer’s work, which was just an honour! #reading #quiet #beauty #vermeer #aftervermeer #oilpainting #beautifulart #australianart #light

“Poppies to Smile By.” Watercolour on Arches. To launch into 2025, here is my first offering to the world- a happy, bright little piece. Not a lot is going right with our world at the moment. So its important to notice the little things. #watercolour #poppies #painting #feelingdown #findhopeagain
