ARTIST STATEMENT

I am a Perth-based Australian abstract artist creating large-scale paintings that explore colour, emotion and the quiet stories carried through everyday life. Working mostly on raw natural linen, I build each piece through layered, instinctive mark-making, allowing the texture of the surface to become part of the final work.

Growing up by the Australian coastline continues to shape my palette and sense of movement, with contrasts in nature influencing the balance between bold tones and softer, grounding hues. I paint with real homes in mind - the walls we pass each day, the changing light in a room, and the way art can shift the feeling of a space in a subtle but lasting way.

As a mother of three, my practice is closely tied to the rhythms of family life. Painting is both a form of reflection and a way to hold onto fleeting moments. Each work evolves slowly, layer by layer, until it reaches a sense of balance that feels honest and resolved.

My hope is that my paintings feel personal to those who live with them - pieces that reveal something new over time, inviting you to discover stories within their layers while also finding your own connection to the story they hold.
