Profile
As a traveler, painter, writer and mystic astrologer, I am always in process of artmaking…... and now at play with the River Goddess on the Clyde River, south of Sydney.
I have found the act of using earth-pigments in my work, especially sensitizing to the most subtle of environmental muses.
What captures my heart every day on the Clyde however, is the Water-music…...I have returned to using a lot of watercolour and making clay pods/vessels, containers for the spirit of children….. describing safety, womb, sanctuary.
In complement, I have just completed my first book. Joy in that accomplishment! Looking …. looking for a publisher!
Now, on to my second novel and a children’s book to illustrate.
Isolation is a part of working with Gaia and environmental energies and I am compelled to turn to either watercolour, photography, acrylic, drawing, clay, paper wrappings, collage.
All my work is available for sale in original form. Contact aviartmaker@gmail.com
The Zen quality of the-perfect-stroke-of-paint, asks of me total commitment to silence and a meditative mind.
Please contact me if any of you very LOVERLY bubblers would like bush-art-retreat time with me and my partner and super-dog of course.
Blessings!!!!!

My father lay about the branches of the tree after he died. His spectral absence left a discolouration in the air. The sepia stain hung in / vaporous discomfit through the Catalpa tree. I saw a fu…
